Be cautious on using VGA cables. I bought 2 a few years ago which didnt have pin 9 connected which unfortunately is one of the band signals from the K3, So I made my own with 2 connectors and a lenght of multicore cable
I just hit a similar snag this weekend, my cables unlimited PCM-2250 15 pin Y cable adaptors also have no pin 9, which means they are only usable if I dont use band data Dave ww2r Message: 5 Date: Sun, 17 Jan 2010 10:07:19 -0800 From: Randy Hall <listk7...@gmail.com> Subject: [Elecraft] K3 ACC connector and VGA cable To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Message-ID: <db0a2e261001171007y7882d5b3wd8193e4e8b149...@mail.gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi, I am starting to get the my K3 integrated into my station. I am thinking about building a breakout box to bring several of the pins on the ACC connector out to RCA jacks. I was wondering if I just hack off one end of a standard VGA cable if the cable has enough wires in it to get to all the pins on the ACC connector? Or, get a 15 pin VGA connector and make up my own cable? Comments from the K3 community?
