Connection power is only needed for some RS-232 to TTL or CI-V converters that require "interface power" and do not provide an external power supply. Those interfaces are generally used only for Icom and older Yaesu/Kenwood radios and are certainly not applicable to the K2 or K3 which use simple three wire RS-232 (bipolar voltage) interfaces.

As a follow up to my last post, (should be N3fjp, NOT N3flp), Bill, NR4C asked why connection power RTS is needed. I don't know however I was just following the recommended list in the successful list settings shown on the AClog website. I decided to try the setting, connection power = none, and it still works. Thanks Bill, for asking. 73, Gene W2BXR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
