[Elecraft] KIO2 problem -- maybe

[Dave Sublette]

I had a lightning strike and am getting things back together.  I am
attempting to connect via a KUSB cable with a series adapter to make it a
proper cable for the K2.

The PORT menus says the port is ON and I can turn it ON and OFF as outlined
in the manual.

Prior to the strike, this same radio and cable and software was operating
normally.  Now the software cannot connect to the radio, even though the
setup shows an available USB/serial port available.

I'm wondering if the KUSB cable is bad(probably due to the strike)?

First item I need to know, is the KIO2 OK if I can turn it on and off from
the EDIT menu?  If the KIO2 is good, then it has to be the KUSB cable.

What say ye?

Thanks,

Dave, K4TO
