The Edgeport 8-port is a great way to go but a 4-port is good too.  I use mine 
to connect the K3/P3, KPA, KX3/KXPA, KAT, KRC2, and FSK Keying for the k3.
CHEERS,

I have used a four-port USB to Serial Adapter (purchased on Amazon, from 
Gearmo), along with two KXSER cables for the 9-pin DIN to 3.5mm TRS conversion.

What I use now is a Edgeport 8-port USB to Serial adapter I found on eBay at a 
very attractive price.

I need to be able to talk via RS-232 to any and all of the devices without 
recabling.  Part of that is the needs of my job, but I'd want to do that way 
even if it weren't my job...

Group -

        My K3, KPA500, KAT500, two USB soundcards and an SDR are all cabled 
together and playing well. I would like to upgrade the firmware in all 3  K 
line devices.  Is it necessary to completely or partially remove cables before 
attaching my computer via USB - serial port cable to each K line device in turn 
and doing its firmware update? Removing and reassembling the cables is 
possible, but not trivial.

                                 K4KGG, Larry
