[Rajiv Dewan]

Tim,

  Why don’t you try using the KPA500 remote software instead?  Here is the link: https://elecraft.com/pages/kpa1500-kpa500-kat500-remote-software <https://elecraft.com/pages/kpa1500-kpa500-kat500-remote-software>

My KPA500 will stay connect to my computer for <2 min and the Utility locks up and the only way to get it to load again is to re-boot the computer.  The error messages I receive all say the port is in use which it is not.  I have uninstalled and re-install the FTID comport driver many times.  The baud rate of 38400 for both computer and amp.  I have downgraded and up graded the firmware.
