Yes I have OmniRig installed. I also just tried LP Bridge (thanks to G4IL0
Julian's suggestion) and at first had the K3 connected through COM 6 and it
was working, then was going to try Skimmer on one of the virtual ports and
now LP Bridge won't even connect to the K3. Certainly frustrating...think
I'll set back and take a breather before I drive myself nuts......:-) 
Thanks for the suggestions Bill...........Larry
