Roman,
You did not say which transceiver you have, so I will try to give you
the full answer.
If you have the K3S or a K3 with the updated KIO3B (with a USB input),
then the answer is yes. Plug the cable between your USB port and the K3S.
But the KUSB implies that it is a USB to serial converter, not just a
USB cable.
If you can obtain a USB to RS-232 converter where you are it should
work. The chipset desired is FTDI. Others may work, but Prolific
chipsets are "iffy".
OTOH, if you have a KX2 or KX3, you will need a 1/8 inch stereo plug on
the rig end. If you have a USB to serial adapter, you can build an
RS-232 to 1/8 inch stereo plug cable. Download the XG3 manual from
Elecraft, there is a schematic of the cable in that manual.
73,
Don W3FPR

I'm on a mini DXPedition and left my KUSB at home. Can a regular USB A-B cable
be used? I'm guessing no...
