One thing that often goes wrong to kill RS232 is different speed 
settings on radio and computer.  They must match.  38,400 is a great 
choice.  Set the computer in your logging software, set the radio in the 
K3 "long push" menu.

If that's good, go into the Windoze Control Panel, open the System 
section, select "Hardware" from the top section, and scroll down to the 
ports. Check the RS232 ports to make sure they're working (and not 
turned off).
