I may need to clarify...
I meant the K3 port on the computer is a serial port not using a USB.

Also I am using DXLabs not HRD, so I can not address any agc issues, pro or
con.

My post is simply to inform about the problem of running PowerSDR/IF or NaP3
while running S Meter Lite as one of the virtual ports of LP-Pan Bridge
v0.994
and K3 Beta v4.42
