Must we pay $39 for Elecraft's KUSB Universal Serial Bus Adapter, or
will one for $2 as seen offered through Ebay work?
Thanks

You pay your money and you take your chances! I don't need one for my K3
as I use the shack computer with 8 real serial ports. For portable use
(with other gear), I have a couple of USB to serial adapters on a
Toshiba laptop that work well, they were about the equivalent of $30 US.
I bought
Bob,
No you do not have to buy the adapter from Elecraft.
You can buy the one from Elecraft that is known to work, or you can buy
the $2 one and see if it works - some may, some may not, it is a gamble.
That ine from Ebay likely has some shipping charges with it too, so it
will cost you
It depends on the adapter and what you want to use it for. If you
are just looking for data transfer, I would think just about any
aftermarket adapter will work. Some do not implement the full st of
control lines. So if you want to use PTT or CW, there *may* be a
problem. I am not saying

Maybe.
And how much is the shipping/handling?
