[Elecraft] kat/kpa500 cable

[Jeff Griffin]

Thanks for all the suggestions on and off list. I bought a VGA extension
cable at Best Buy thinking it would be straight through. When I got it home
I found 4 or 5 of the 15 pins were shorted together. I returned the cable
and then went to radio shack looking for a couple of DB-15's, to make my own
cable. Nope. I'm sure I have some DB-15's at my summer home that's 62 miles
away, and if I was there I would just build the needed cable. But at this
point I just ordered the cable from Elecraft, rather then  the one suggested
from another vender. Thanks again for all the constructive(and one not so
constructive :-) ) suggestions...
