[Elecraft] K2 and FLdigi

[Julian, G4ILO]

Are you using a USB to serial adapter? I had trouble with Fldigi and my K2
when using an adapter with the Prolific chip set. I enabled the diagnostics
and some of the data from the radio was getting garbled. I tried an FTDI
adapter and that worked. Don't ask me why some programs work and some don't.
It's a mystery.
