[Elecraft] k-pod data cable

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Jeff makes an excellent point about long data cables. If you decide to try a
longer ribbon cable first and are not interested in making your own, buy an
RJ45 cable and F-F coupler to extend the Elecraft cable. Be sure to put the
Elecraft cable closest to the K3, since it does not have pin 1 connected,
and use the RJ45 cable for the rest of the run.

Let me repeat my earlier comment: Macros 1 through 8 are accessed by HOLDING
the KPOD switches for more than 1/2 second. Tapping (holding for less than
1/2 second) accesses K3 Macros 9 though 16. That might be what some of the
people experiencing "unreliable" switch behavior are doing and not getting
the reaction they expect from macros 1 through 8.

Hello,
Anybody in this group, using a different length data cable supplied with the
k-pod??The cable uses two 6P6C modular male connectors, and requires
5 conductors..
Elecraft supplies a 36" long cable??
I would need longer cable....but wondering if the Pod will be working
correctly???
