Thanks, Simon, for suggesting power to the USB adapter may be low; I had not considered that.  I'm driving it off a powered hub with a 2nd adapter from the same manufacturer to the FT1000 which IS working fine at 4800 baud.  I'll try using the adapter straight to the PC and see what happens. Wonder if another vendor's version would be less power sensitive than what I'm using?
 
Right now I've pulled the older PC that has a direct RS232 out of retirement and the K2 is happy as a clam talking to HRD.  So, now I've got two laptops: one on the right by the K2 and one on the left by the FT1000. Not as clean as I would like it but it works!
