[Elecraft] [K3] RS232 Connection

[David Herring]

Dave,

Is there any chance that you moved the serial adapter to another USB port, or that you plugged in other USB devices since this last worked?

I've had this problem before and it was a result of my serial adapter getting assigned to a different device in the OS (such as, hypothetically /dev/tty1 instead of /dev/tty0).  That usually results from plugging in to a different usb port.

If this isn't your problem, then some of the other suggestions you received are spot on and well worth looking at.

73 & Aloha,
Dave, AH6TD
