Some of the pins in an SVGA cable are cross-connected. It won't work, many have pointed that out, despite which, I tried. For me, the Elecraft KPAK3AUX cable is too long :-) Already waaaayy too many wires and cables back there coiled up.
'Nother subject: So far, most of the Elecraft model numbering/lettering "scheme" seems to be working, one can sort of figure out what the gizmo is from it's "name." This cable may be testing the limits, since there are several different KPA's, at least two of which are relevant to a K3. EL/XXX-nnn nomenclature next? If you've never served in the US Military, that may not make much sense, but it works for them and they'll buy just about anything. :-) 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2011 Cal QSO Party 1-2 Oct 2011 - www.cqp.org On 9/13/2011 1:58 PM, Peter Chamalian wrote: > What I didn't fully digest is that the wiring is incompatible!
