After reading about the problems people are having getting their 
PCs to talk to the KRC2, I think I'm glad I rolled my own with 
an Arduino and the band lines from the K3. I learned a lot about 
hardware, and had a fun construction project. Now antenna switch 
controller sits next to the K3 and automatically selects an 
antenna for each band. Too bad the encoding for the 60M band 
aliases the transverter bands. I may have to teach the Arduino 
async ASCII should the aliasing become a problem, or if I 
develop a need to know where in a band the K3 is tuned.
