Hi everybody, Reading the Reflector convinced me that a RS232 connection is better than a USB connection between the K3 and the computer.
I recently changed my laptop and succeeded in finding a laptop with a RS232 com port (HP ProBook 650 G1). The problem I'm now facing is that normal DB9 female connectors cannot be reliably inserted in the male DB9 connector of the laptop due to the physical characteristics of the male DB9 connector : there are no nuts on the laptop to attach the connector and the height of normal DB9 female connectors is too big. I looked at many supplier web pages but didn't find a thinner DB9 connector without bolts. Has anybody made the same experience and resolved the problem ? Thank you De Ray, F4FNT ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
