[Elecraft] new computer advice suggestions for using with a K3

[Edward Dickinson III]

Most of the motherboards I have looked at online recently do have a  com
port header on them, but no connector on the backplane.  You can likely find
a connector and cable at a computer parts and pieces store.   A rotary tool
with a diamond cutting blade can create an opening for mounting a connector.
Mine is mounted just below the power supply.

 

Another alternative is to add a com port plugin card in an available slot.
