FWIW, I use the same adapter, and have done so for a couple of years. It works well with the K3. You can also download drivers on the Belkin website if you need them.

I believe it is the only one they sell. Tried to put the link in, but it is too big.

Belkin USB-to-Serial Portable Adapter
Item 597324 - Staples #
Model F5U409V1 - Belkin #

I do not know if it works from N3FJP, but it does work from N1MM when I have RTS-DTR set on the rig. Just have to leave the rig off while the computer is booting up, or it keys.

I have a Belkin that I picked up recently at Staples. It has worked well.

Hello:


Well, after trying several permutations to try and figure why software was
unable to poll freq/mode, I have discovered that the K3 doesn't like my
usb-serial port adapters. I have two available - Keyspan 4-port and a
USBGear 2-port. Both have worked admirably with everything - until now.
When
I re-hooked my K3 back to the shack computer with a true serial port, it
connected immediately - no sweat. CW keying was never a problem with the
USB
adapters.


I need to find a USB-serial adapter that WILL work with the K3 in time for
FD. I hate this because these adapters worked so well with the K2.
