I'm not so sure... My FT-1000 MP Cat connection has a male DB9 connection, and the K3 has a female connection. If the MP's convention is "standard" for Yaesu rigs, then the FT2000 cord will not work. Serial cord connections on PC's are male. The K3 requires a cord with male on one end and female on the other. The MP requires a double female cord. That fact made all the cords I had used with my MP directly unusable with the K3.
If the FT2000 CAT connection on the back of the rig has pins, the cord will not work for the K3 as is. An inexpensive male serial gender changer on the rig end will convert a double female. I found the gender changers inconvenient with cord replacement (K3 travels a bit with me), and eventually bought new cords. 73, Guy.
