[Elecraft] K3 and logging software/CW Skimmer Issues

[pastormg2 at verizon.net]

Good Morning, this is Mark Griffin, KB3Z. I  and currently using N3FJP AC Log program which is connected to my K3 via Com Port 8. But I downloaded CW Skimmer last evening and the interface that I use is the Signallink USB which is connected to Com Port 10. I have transceiver control with AC Log on Com Port 8. But when I use CW Skimmer on Com Port 10 I lose transceiver control because AC Log is using it.

Has anyone ran into this issue and if so is there a way that I can share Com Port 8 between 2 applications? I have read that there are solutions, but not sure where to look. Thanks for all your help/suggestions. Mark Griffin, KB3Z
