[Elecraft] P3: How to Get Frequency on top center of P3

[Don Wilhelm]

Mark,

Using the cabling shown on page 6 of the P3 manual, you must connect the 
computer to the P3 with an RS-232 cable or USB to serial adapter (not 
the K3S USB cable).
Also set the K3 menu RS-232 parameter to 38400 and NOT USB.
Be certain the P3 is also set to 38400 baud.

Again, pull the boot on the RJ-45 dongle back and push on the metal part 
of the plug to make certain it is fully seated.

If you switch to the K3S to computer USB cable, you must use the CBLP3Y 
cable between the K3S and the P3 as shown on page 5 of the P3 manual.

73,

I am wondering if there are any setting on the K3S that need to be checked or set. Both the K3S and P 3 are brand new. The K3S is loaded with all available options except the 2 meter band option.
