Radio

Configuration

FLDIGI

I use Hamlib for the radio interface.

Select “Elecraft K3/KX3” from the drop-down list.
This setting works for both rigs (KX2 and KX3.)

-Select the serial port to which the KX2/KX3 USB cable

is connected.

- This will vary by PC. Mine was on COM7.
- Use the KX2/KX3 Utility application to determine the

correct setting.

- Be sure to shut the KX2/KX3 Utility application down

so as to free the COM port for use by FLDIGI.

Match the setting of the radio (

RS232

in the menu.)
