Not that it might not help but I've been running DXLabs CI-V Commander
with microHAM Router/microKEYER II and P3 since the very start with
Commander's "command interval" set to 200 msec with no lock-ups.  I
doubt that "command interval" is the smoking gun ... but by reducing
the serial load it probably makes it less likely for the underlying 
issue to surface.
