[Elecraft] USB Serial Port Adapter

[Robert]

You cannot use a regular serial cable with a K2.  Not all the wires are 
connected in the same way.  Review your manual on the IO board and it 
will give you the correct pin to pin set-up.  You may be able to make a 
short cable with the correct pin to pin set-up for the K2 and then 
connect that into your USB serial adapter.
