[Elecraft] partial K line es Microkeyer integration

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

 > I have a K3, not a K3S

With a K3, and no P3 you will need the Elecraft "Y" cable for the
ACC jack (to connect FSK).  Connect the RS-232 lead from the
microHAM Interface to the K3's RS-232 jack and get rid of the KUSB.

I suspect the model confusion was mine ... I'm used to the K3S
causing confusion due to the "Y" cable used with the P3 and the
internal (infernal) USB support <G>.

I had double checked my owners manual and then the most recent version online. No diagram. Then, I checked the K3S manual and bingo, therein lies the confusion. I have a K3, not a K3S. I apologize if I caused the model confusion.
