Mike,
One of the potential problems is that the K2 works at 4800 baud, which
by current standards is slow.
The problem is that some USB to serial adapters do not like to run at
that slow speed. I have tested the Elecraft KUSB with my K2, and I also
can state the my 4 port Edgeport USB to serial converter works well.
I have also used a Keyspan adapter.
If you can arrange a "return if it does not work" arrangement with the
place where you buy it, that would be beneficial.
You can use a USB 1.1 or 2.0 or 3.0 adapter.

I want to connect my Windows 10 tablet to my K2. I have the KIO2 module
installed and I have built the K2 serial cable. I have read the relevant
material on the Elecraft website about avoiding the Prolific chipset. The
USB port on my tablet is 3.0. My question is this - can I use any version
of USB (1.1, 2.0, 3.0) to serial adapter to connect the tablet to the K2
cable or is one better than the others?
Thanks,
Mike
