The first connector marked ACC gives RS232 access. Since it is not the traditional 9 pin RS232 connector (which would be rather large for such a small radio) a special RS232 cable is required to interface with an external computer. A stereo plug could carry data in/out quite easily. It also mentions that the KX3 uses the same commands as the K3. I assume that digital/control software like MixW would be able to work with the KX3 in much the same way as the K3. In addition to these 3 connectors there are 2 more (1/8" stereo ?) connectors ... one for the Mic/PTT and RX I/Q which could be used for other interesting functions ... like a pan-adapter ?
