[Elecraft] W2 connection issues

[Jim Spears]

I have two W2 units that I use with different K3's and different W10
computers.  One of them is reluctant to connect when I start up the W2
utility program.  So I power the W2 off and back on with the utility program
active and it connects just fine.  This is consistent behavior.

 

The other seems to be able to connect just fine.  I have not spent any time
trying to figure out why one requires the off/on sequence but just live with
it.

 

There may something in the physical connection to the computer.  i.e.
through a USB port, through a COM port, etc.
