[Elecraft] K3 USB TO SERIAL CABLE

Hi Norm,

I run Vista64 Business Edition here and I have never been able to get
updated Prolific drivers that work with my system (Lenovo T61 laptop). They
do everything from BSD's to applications just hanging. I did purchase a
single adapter cable with an FTDI chipset and it works FB. I also have a USB
hub with an FTDI chipset and it works FB also. I believe I got them both
from USBGear.com.

It may very well be my system, but I have never had any luck with the
Prolific chipsets. I know others have. YMMV.

73,
Dave W8FGU
