[Elecraft] K2/PSK KIO2?

[Leigh L Klotz, Jr.]

It is adequate, but you can get frequency data and control for your 
spectrum display, so you see the frequency you're on, click on a signal 
and have it recenter in the filter passband, and change 
bands/frequencies from your program.  The "rig control" feature is 
supported by a number of digimode programs.  If you use the KIO2, you 
won't need to use the PTT line with such programs, as they can send the 
K2's TX and RX commands over the serial port, so you only need the one 
serial port, not two.
