Remember that the DB9 connector on a K2 is NOT a standard RS232 
connector. Study the manual. To send CW via the computer serial port, a 
"level shifter" is needed. It's been a while, but I think I remember DTR 
driving a generic PNP with 5K in series with the base, and the collector 
to the K2 key input, emitter to keying return. Someone will correct me 
if I'm wrong.
