My impression is that PCMCIA aka PC Card, I think,
went away some years ago. None of my three laptops
has that feature.

get the interface working, I can use it to
connect to the K3 and my rotator controller.
I may consider it for one of my towers. Thanks
for the suggestion.

Perhaps the best bet is to install real serial
ports - I have two. One
for the K3 and the other for my TS480. As I
recall, I paid about $20 for
the board - a long time ago. It has been in
several computers. To me,
the place for the adapter is inside the K3 -
that way everyone gets the
same thing to work with and Elecraft will
assure it works properly from
git go. No more screwing around with
real/counterfeit/bogus products and
drivers - just a single source that works for
sure.
