[Elecraft] [K2] USB version for USB to serial adapter

[Buck]

There were many counterfeit chips so the patent holders put code in 
their drivers to disable the counterfeits.  The USB version (1, 2 or 3) 
does not matter.  You want to get a genuine converter.  Best way to 
guarantee that is to buy your converter cable from a reputable source. 
Elecraft sells one. So does MFJ.  I am sure there are others.  Just 
don't get some cheap knock-off from the Internet.
