Depending on what you want to accomplish, you might consider an 
alternate approach -- try to find a logging program that controls 
the K3 in the ways you need. Several do, with varying degrees of 
sophistication. The logger DXKeeper works with control software 
called Commander (same publisher, both are FREE). It's a very nice 
logger. DXKeeper also works with Ham Radio Deluxe, which is QUITE 
sophisticated control software, and it's FREE. Ham Radio Deluxe 
includes a logging program, and that logger is being significantly 
upgraded NOW. Also FREE.  These are all "general purpose" loggers 
and controllers, designed general QSOs and DXing. They do NOT do 
contesting.  

Almost any good contest logger supports the K3, including WinTest 
($75-$100), WriteLog (about $75) and N1MM (FREE), and allow quite 
sophisticated control and logging functions. 

I'm sure there are other loggers to consider -- these are the ones I 
know about.
