[Elecraft] Driver Requirement for K3S

[Bill Frantz]

Given the need to support both audio "sound card" data and 
RS-232 data, I would expect the USB driver in the K3S to first 
simulate a USB hub and then these two USB devices. Someone with 
a K3S can verify this, at least on a Mac, with the USB 
information from the hardware information. On the mac this will 
be About this Mac -> more information which brings up the System 
Information application.
