[Elecraft] USB -> Serial adaptor

[Hank Kohl K8DD]

I've got the same kind of laptop .... 2 USB ports and no serial.

I have one USB serial adapter from K4ABT's web page
http://www.buxcommco.com/page3/bccpage3.htm 
down the page a bit ....

Also have one I picked up on the web somewhere for a bit less. 


Both of them work fine with the major logging programs, so I would think


they will work with K2 Remote or K2S .... You have to check what COM


port Windows gave to the USB serial adapter .... and with XP pro you
can

change it.

Hi folks,


My new system ( a laptop) has not got a serial port!!

This leaves me in a quandary (terrible place!!) for using K2 Remote or
Dans'

K2S program... No can do!!!

Has anybody tried a USB to serial adaptor?? And have you had any luck
with

either of these programs using it??

I'd like to know *before* I spend the bucks...


Thanks
