[Elecraft] K2 USB vs. DB9

[John Hoaglun]

Hello to the folks on the list.

I am getting ready to order my K2 kit sometime over the next few days.
(I sold my 746pro to be replaced with the K2 in QRP mode.) I was
wondering if anyone on the list has designed a USB connection to the
replace the DB9 serial interface?

I see no point in having to use a USB to Serial dongle in today's age.
Most new PCs only have USB especially laptops. It seems like it would
pretty simple to replace replace the DB9 with USB driver chip. (I
thought that there was an article in Nuts & Volts recently that maybe
tackled the Serial to USB conversion.)

Thanks for the bandwidth.
