[Elecraft] FTDI driver on Win10

[C.A. Jones]

FWIW, I plugged KXUSB into my Win10 Pro PC, and as reported by Dave WO2X,
it operated as intended (communicating with KX3) w/o having to install
drivers.

Quite generally, my modus operandi with stuff like this is to just plug it
in and try it before investigating possible additional required actions.
