[Elecraft] WSJT-X Band Following

[Don Wilhelm]

Richard,

If you want to have the software application know the band and frequency 
that the K3S is working, you must establish communications between that 
application and the K3S.
With the K3S, that is accomplished over the USB connection between the 
computer and the K3S.
So you must tell the application which COM port the K3S is connected to.

Yes, a USB port will have a COM port associated with it.  I do not know 
how to find that information on a Mac, so perhaps some other Mac user 
will be able to tell you.

The K3S uses the USB cable, and not an RS-232 cable - unless you have 
some strange connection using the RJ45 to RS-232 dongle on the K3S 
instead of the USB cable.

73,
