[Elecraft] K3 - USB

[Fred Jensen]

Watch Control Panel --> Device Mangler --> Ports while you plug in the 
USB cable to the PC.  You should see a new COM port come up.  That's the 
port you use to talk to the radio.  It's faintly possible you are 
missing or have an old driver, but Windows almost always installs the 
correct driver transparently when you plug in the cable.  Unplugging the 
cable will cause that port to disappear.
