[Elecraft] K2 USB to 9 Pin Cable (info)

[Harry Yingst]

 Yes it was a typo it should have been RTS

The RTS (Request To Send) and CTS (Clear To Send) probably don't need
to be tied together but some programs may want it so I tied them together.

It appears to me that the only AUX connector pins that are used by this proposed cable are 2, 3, and 5.    If the K2 will accept RS-232 levels without damage then I don't see how any damage can be done by the proposed cable.  The cable specification would be clearer if the meaning of "RTC" were known.  I suspect it's a typo for RTS and that the CTS and RTS wires are tied together but not connected to the AUX connector.
