[Elecraft] K3 Accessory Connector

[Charles Harpole]

Along with the Anderson power poles, here is another bad choice for 
connector...  the multi pin thing that is now used on computers for serial 
and parallel interface (in some pin number or other) was a stupid choice on 
computers and is even worse on a ham rig. My electronic engineer tells me 
these things were designed for about 25 plug and unplug prior to expected 
failure.

Not counting the difficulty of soldering to these tiny things.  What have 
"modern" technicans in the ham world... got against EASY ????
And why think NEW is the same as BETTER ?
Did u ever step on one of these things?

I hope I misunderstood the connector name.

Gee wizz.

Oh, yes, keep my K3 order current !
