DB9 M/F Extension Cable #26-117. I'm leaning toward this option because the Radio Shack has nice knobs vs. screws to attach and detach the cables. In either case I need to know if the K3 requires a straight through cable or a null modem cable where the transmit and receive lines are reversed. I looked for this info in the K3 manual and couldn't find it. I'm assuming the Radio Shack "Extension" cable is straight through.
Any and all help would be appreciated. Roger:Radio Shack makes a "gender changer," consisting of back-to-back 9-pin males. This can be used easily, without cutting cables, to solve your problem.73, Norm - W1MO _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
