[Elecraft] P3 hookup

[Mike K2MK]

Hi Mike,

That is not correct. Please reread my response. Keep in mind that the P3 has
two RS232 ports on it. One port from the computer and one port to the K3.

If you wait until you get the P3 and its manual in your hands you'll see
that it is really quite simple. Everything you need is contained in the box.

73,
Mike K2MK
