Re[Elecraft] ccomended KXV3 wiring

[Don Brown]

Hi

Its been a while since I built a K2/multi transverter setup but you only 
need 4 wires for each transverter. Pins 6, 8, 9 and 1 on the transverter 9 
pin connector. These are all daisy chained to each transverter. The only 
difference in the K2 and K3 would be the 15 pin on the K3 end or a 9 pin for 
a K2.

For the K3 connector pin 2 (AUXBUS) connects to pin 6 on the transverter. 
Pin 7 (XVTR ON) connects to pin 8 on the transverter. Pin 10 (KEYOUT-LP) 
connects to pin 9 on the transverter. The ground pin 5 or 12 connects to pin 
1 on the transverter.
