[Elecraft] USB Support - K3, K2?

[Fred (FL)]

As many posts have mentioned, for various reasons,
it would be nice to have a USB port into the K3.
And also a K2 upgrade.   Wonder how hard this would
be for Elecraft to work up and provide?  Seems
like RS-232C Serial has been around for decades
and decades - I think starting in just past
Fairfield TTY Teletype days in 1959.

I just went thru a failed USB-to-Serial cable
converter attempt from my Laptop (USB) to a
Kenwood TH-F6A HT.  Kenwood service knew
nothing about USB, and very little about their
freebee HT software program that supports the
TH-F6A handi-talkee.  I gave up - after many
many comm link failure difficulties into
the TH-F6A, from a very very modern 2006
Compaq laptop, loaded with USB ports.  Sent
TH-F6A back to HRO.

I hope these jury-rigs aren't required talking
to a K3?

Thanks, Fred, N3CSY
