Ken,
For those purchasing a used K2, this seems to be a common problem, the
seller may not provide all the cables and accessories that originally
came with the K2 and its options. That includes a 2.1mm coaxial power
plug, a 3.5mm stereo plug that may be used for the key jack, the

I have a K2 and a K3. I clearly see in the K2 manual that a special cable is
needed but it appears the K3 is a standard RS232 pinout.

something!)

Sure ... You do! The K2 is a 'melt-solder' kit. The K2 manual spells
out how to make the correct cable.
The K3 uses 'normal' 9pin serial cables. The K2's cable included
Elecraft's aux-bus info for the external ATU. The K3 mounts the ATU
internally. If a
The computer cable for the K2 requires only three wires connecting
pins 2, 3 and 5 on each end. The other pins must not be connected
since the KIO2 signals on these pins are not RS-232 capable.
Connecting them to an RS-232 connector will cause damage in the K2.

What is the proper RF isolation for the GND on a RS232 cable? I want several
for different QTHs, so will build them myself.

Cleve,
Jim Brown K9YC has posted much good advice on this subject. Take a look
at his website information at

and

Pay particular attention to his comments about using twisted pair (CAT5)
for RS-232
The K3 Manual has been flogged.
The RS232 cable has been whipped.
What's next, fellers?

hehe.. I expect we'll see quite a bit of flogging over the next few months. :-
I found the manual to be very well done. It is well written, coherent and
very easy to understand. Everything makes sense. Kudos to those that worked on
it.
I can't believe people are whining about the
