[Elecraft] KRC2 rs232 to cpu not working

[Gordon LaPoint]

All,
        I found the problem.  My serial cable had a broken wire on pin 
2.  I had used the serial cable on my KPA-500 and it was working.  Must 
have broken when I removed it from the system and used it to test the 
KRC2. Thanks for all the pointers and help! Murphy is so busy at my QTH, 
hope he leaves soon!

Thank you,
