Frank,

Yes it should bring up RTS-DTR after the port is polled.
When running with Unsafe mode, pay attention to when the K3 is turned on 
and when the computer is turned on.  At times, you may have to turn the 
computer on after the K3, and an easy way to prevent the extraneous 
keying is to either use TEST mode or simply turn VOX off during the 
computer boot time.
