Previous post was garbled by an error in a text editor.  Corrected text follows:


Elecraft sells a serial cable as an option for the W1 wattmeter, to allow 
communication between the W1 and a PC.  What I cannot determine by looking 
through the site is whether that cable is all I would need to connect my W1 to 
a PC that has  USB ports, but no DB9 or DB15.   One photograph from Google 
Images  shows a cable with a mini-plug TRS on one end and a DB9 on the other.  
But the description of the W1 on the Elecraft site says " Elecraft will also be 
supplying a W1 compatible USB adapter as an option for the W1."  Note the 
future tense "will."  There is no description nor photo of the W1SERKT on the 
Order Page.  So, bottom line question - is the W1SERKT a TRS to USB cable, or 
do I need a TRS to DB9 and a DB9 to USB?  I sent a note to Sales asking this, 
but I thought maybe someone here would know . . .

Thanks in advance,

Ted, KN1CBR
