Ian,
The transverters cannot be directly connected to the K3 like they can
on the K2. There are signals in the K3 ACC connector that can be used
if you want to be creative, but without that, the K3 can be connected
to the transverters like a non-Elecraft transceiver.
Then what is the point of the K3 transverter interface? Does it simply
provide a low level output?
By the way (and very important) the signals from the K2 to the
transverter are *NOT* RS-232. Look at the connector label on the K2 -
it says "AUX I/O". Just because it is a DE-9 connector and does
contain 2 signal lines (TXD and RXD) that can connect to a computer
serial port does not make it an RS-232 connector - the signals that go
to the transverter are unique K2 internal signals.
I fully understand this Don. That is the reason I stated serial and not
RS232. Perhaps I could have been more pedantic :-)
