[Elecraft] K3 Send and receive data on a terminal program?

[Kenneth A. Christiansen]

I have been using K3 0047 and having lots of fun. I have the KUSB from 
Elecraft and it works fine with MixW and Ham Radio Delux.
I have Vista on my computer and had to download a copy of HyperTerminal 
from the internet. I can not get  any commands to go to the K3 from 
HyperTerminal and I can not see any data from the K3 on HyperTerminal. I 
got out an old DOS computer with an XTALK clone called MIRROR but I was 
not able to get it to send or receive data either. Has anyone else been 
able to get this feature to work. If you have can please share settings 
for both the K3 and the terminal program that I need to use. I already 
tried setting both terminals for 38400, 8 bits, no parity and 1 stop bit 
and the K3 is taling to MixW and Ham Radio Delux with these setting.
Thanks for any help.
I used the K3 on the 160 meter SSB net this morning and found I could 
work stations that I could not hear with the IC-746PRO. The audio also 
sounds much nicer to my ears. I am using 20 for MIC gain and 20 for CMP. 
Everyone told me it sounded better than the IC 746PRO so it must sound 
good as I have had good luck for 4 years with the IC 746PRO. I also used 
it on an AM net on 160 with good results both transmitting and 
receiving. I used the same MIC gain 20 and CMP gain 20.

73 for now.
