[Elecraft] WSJT-X Band Following

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

Can't speak for a MAC but you should be using WSJT-X version 1.9.1.  
Yes, the K3S should follow the WSJT band/frequency changes.    And when 
I change frequency or band on my K3S, the WSJT-X software changes 
frequency/band accordingly.

I use a single cable between my K3S and computer.  This is a standard 
USB B type cable to USB.  This cable connects to the USB port #33 as 
shown in the manual.  There is no connection to the RS-232 port.   In 
the K3S CONFIG menu RS232 is set to USB.   This configuration works with 
every software application which I use.    WSJT-X, FLDIGI, HRD, MMRTTY, 
CW DECODER, DIGIPAN, and others.  This cable handles the radio CAT 
commands and the RX & TX audio as required.
