[Elecraft] USB/3.5mm Extension?

[W2HX]

Hi all,

I have acquired my KAT500 and I am starting to play with it. I am trying to use the KAT utility to control it which it does fine. Now I want to place it between a transmitter and cable. Can I use a 10 foot 3.5mm TRS male to female extension cable to extend the USB connector? My computer is farther away from the antenna switching than the included cable can stretch. I think the REMOTE capability might be in my future, but for now just trying a simple set up.
