Hi All,
I've taken Jim Brown and Don's advise and constructed a K2 to PC control
cable using Shielded Cat 6 ethernet cable. The shield is tied to the DB9
shell on both ends of the cable, signal returns using the striped wire of
each pair tied to pin 5.
The cable appears to be a success: RFI
Brian,
Tie the signal returns (ground) for for the K2 to other Elecraft gear to
pin 1.
Note that pin 5 is only the signal return (ground) in the RS-232 (PC)
portion of the cable (K2 and PC ends)
For the W1 to PC cable, the signal return is pin 5, just as in the K2 to
PC case.
I have not
