[Kenwood] Kenwood 590 USB socket

[Steef PA2A]

Joe,

I think thumb drives won 't fit. I use the TS590 here with a normal USB cable with a
rectangular connector. With the appropriate drivers the 590 gets a COM port number that
can be used for CAT.

The TS590 is supposed to be a device and not a server where you can connect other
devices like thumb drives.
