Folks:

Just to no one will go off in the wrong direction when attempting to connect
to the K3's RS-232 port...

On page 18 of the K3 Owner's Manual, The table associated with RS-232 shows:


    Pin #      Description
   1,6,8,9  Not used
      2     RXD IN (data to PC from K3)
      3     TXD OUT (data to K3 from PC)
      4     DTR (see PTT and Keying, below)
      5     Ground (RF isolated)
      6     RTS (see PTT and Keying, below)

Obviously, pin 6 can't be 'Not Used' AND RTS at the same time...!

RTS should be assigned to pin 7, and pin 6 really is NOT USED.

Please make a pencil correction to your K2 Owner Manual.

73,

Tom Hammond   N0SS
