[Elecraft] Elecraft KX3 Utility error on Mac OS X High Sierra

[Don Wilhelm]

Christer,

I don't know about the D2XX drivers.  You need to have the FTDI drivers. 
  You can download them from https://www.ftdichip.com/FTDrivers.htm.

The first step is to get your computer to enumerate the COM port 
associated with the USB to serial adapter.  Having that number, put it 
into the KX3 Utility PORT tab and Test Communications.

Once the utility connects, everything else should go smoothly.

A rhetorical question - Why have I seen this problem recently from Mac 
users?  Perhaps the Mac software is no longer using the proper drivers 
for the FTDI adapter.

73,
Don W3FPR
