Now you've gone and confused me again. [:-) My control radio is a K3
[old, S/N 642]. I have a9PDT data switch that switches the K3 serial
RS-232 CAT port from the RemoteRig [for remote operations] to my local
computer [when running from home]. The K3 requires that I connect the
mic and headphones to the RRC box for remote and to the K3 for local
operation, which is mildly annoying.
The K3s and K3/0 [mini] provide an integrated USB connection, and
Elecraft provides a nifty one-cable-to-three-cables mini-octopus that
neatly connects all of these, achieving exactly the same functionwith
the RemoteRig that I get, but with more appealing cables, fewer of them
than I have, and you don't have to move mic and phones. Helped a new
remote user set up his K3/0-RemoteRig a couple of weeks ago. Worked
fine. What am I missing?

Rick and Skip, you forget that the k3s has a direct UPS connection and
internal sound card that users often prefer to use as there is then
less cabling involved. This is not possible with remoterig as far as I
know. Wish it were.
