[Elecraft] K3 - Accessory Jack - How Many Wye Cables?

[Don Wilhelm]

Mike,

Any "Y" cable that has all 15 conductors connected straight through with 
none connected to another pin will work.
A "VGA" Y cable will not work because it has several conductors 
connected together.  An SVGA "Y" cable should have all conductors 
independent, but verify that with the cable supplier or check with your 
ohmmeter if you already have one in hand.
