John, I think the neatest converter cable is the K3 itself - just plug the 8 pin connector into the front panel. I don't know of any adapter that will bring out the PTT and AF lines from the 8 pin Foster connector to 3.5mm AF and RCA plugs that can be used on the back panel. Homebrew can provide that, but I know of none "off the shelf",
