[Elecraft] Serial to USB adapters

[DW Holtman]

Hello,

Since most newer computers (at least laptops),  do not have a serial port just USB ports. What type of serial to USB adapters work well? I'm waiting for a K3 and want to be sure everything I need will be on hand when it arrives. Ordered on 27 Dec 07, so I have lots of time. My TR-7 will have to do for now, but it is really a nice rig in my opinion.

Why didn't they install a USB connector? Would it make too much noise and be hard to shield?

Still looking for a good power supply. Decided to go with a linear supply, not a switcher.

Best,
