Johnny, we are not talking about the same thing. I said I used the cable described in the Transverter owner's manual to connect between the RS232 port on the K3 and my computer. That's true.
However, the K3 does not use the same connector for transverter control. It uses a DB-15 connector so you do need a different connector and pin connections at the rig end. Obviously, I haven't had a chance to try interfacing my transverters to the K3 yet. The Transverter Owner's manual has not been updated since the K3 was announced. As Don W3FPR noted, there apparently have been a number of e-mails on the subject on the reflector. Hopefully a search of the archives will give you what you need. My apologies for the confusion.

Yes, I did read p.9 of the XV144 operation manual. However, it only shows the interface cable from XV144 to KI02 of K2 and NOT K3. >From reading of the K3 manual, the RS232 socket has a different usage >in K3 and the wiring is not similar to KI02. Is my understanding >correct? If yes, where can I find similar diagram as that in p.9 of >the XV144 manual for building the interface cable between XV144 and K3. cheers, Johnny Siu VR2XMC _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
