No need for any switching... the P3 can be inserted between the K3 and
the RRC box. The computer can plug into the other serial port (COM1)
on the RRC box for local rig-control, or it can talk through a USB
connection to the RRC instead (including rig-control). You would need
to bypass the RRC box for K3 firmware upgrades, but that's infrequent
enough that you can just temporarily move the cables around....
