[Elecraft] K2 with MacOS Classic

[Don Wilhelm]

Just a tid-bit of information here (useless though it may be) - the RS232
standard does specify a connector - and in fact it is the DB-25 connector.
Other connector configurations may carry the RS-232 signal levels and
signalling protocol, and can come in many different flavors.  The one we
seem to be most concerned with is the DB-9 (more properly a DE-9) connector
which has become the de-facto 'standard' on IBM compatible PCs.  The Apple
world has used mini-din connectors for most everything (including RS-232
level signals) for a long time.
