[Elecraft] K3: USB port

[James Sarte (K2QI)]

Hi Rick,

I would suggest the Keyspan USB to Serial adapter over the KUSB.  With the
KUSB, I always had problems with it when using programs like HRD or DM780.
I believe that was due to the drivers being used.  OTOH, the Keyspan unit
works very well and does not seem to add any additional noise into the
equation.  It also seems to be well shielded from stray RF.
