[Elecraft] k3-kat500-pr6-DigiKeyer via 2 "Y" cable in "cascade" should be OK ?

Hi Greg

Not trying to hijack the thread but which Winford Engineering DB15HD board
are you referring too there are 6 different ones.

That should be OK but quite the rats nest. :)  I would suggest either an
HD15 breakout board from Winford Engineering or see if you can find one of
the LDG RCA breakout boxes.  I have one of these and it works great for
accessing ACCY connections.
