there any advantage to using a plain USB cable instead a USB cable with a bulge

There could be, if Elecraft supported it. USB 2.0 has enough bandwidth
to support a software band scope...

noticed that Yaesu has
a new radio called the FT5000, it looks like a FT2000 and it probably has the
same crap receiver. Its ergonomics look good though.

Why doesn't the design team at Elecraft incorporate a USB port on the back
of the K3 instead of the outdated serial port? They could offer a kit that
would use the hole that is now labeled RS232. There might be room for 2 USB
ports or mini ports.

Actually, I was confused about the KUSB option. I actually thought it was a
built-in USB port and when I learned it was merely a serial to USB connector
and cable I then scratched the KUSB off of my budding proposed configuration.
This is because I have a number of such serial to USB cables
Usb can be a noisy thing, there are many reasons you wouldnt want it
inside the radio Not to mention the exercise in writing drivers
alone is herculean.

Hi Bob,

I don't think writing the drivers is a herculean task but then I used to do
that back when drivers did everything (such as mag tape equipment from the
1960s era where microprocessors did not exist and everything was controlled by
the software interrupt level driver).

Not if you use the FTDI parts. *They* write the system driver, and
supply a complete driver package for 32 and 64 bit Windows. All the
the
culprit.

I suspect many of us have had a USB adapter that didn't seem to cooperate at
