Walt and all,
Just one clarification (for the protection of your KAT100 and K2).
The KAT100 does not talk with any RS-232 signals. It does connect to
the K2 AUX I/O connector, but that is not rs-232 either - there are only
3 RS-232 signal lines (RXD, TXD and signal ground) in the AUX I/O
connector. All the rest of the signals are K2 unique for communicating
with the KAT100 (and remote KPA100 and/or KRC2).
This is a reminder that your K2 (and KAT100 and KPA100) can be damaged
by connecting a regular computer serial cable to the AUX I/O connector.
It is labeled AUX I/O for that very reason - it is NOT an RS-232 port.
Just because a serial cable will fit does not make it a serial port.
73,

I too have a KAT-100 and yes, it would be neat if that could be used
without the RS-232 connection to the K-2. Probably some way to trick
it into thinking it is connected to a K-2 :-)
