I bought a couple refurbished Edgeport 4 port serial to usb converters.
Around $40 to $60 each. They installed, or the Win 8 installed them without
fanfare, and they work well. Enough ports for the entire K line with a
couple left over.

Nice find. The 4 porter is the way to go for that price. I've used those,
moxa's and lantronix devices for as well. Nothing Prolific anymore.
For my remote base, I have a $100 used 4 port Lantronix serial over ip
device that has been rock solid for 3 years now. Even though it is in the

Hi all!
After seeing all the potential issues with various USB-to-SERIAL converters i

picked up this Gearmo 4-port dongle on Amazon for $48.
It uses an FTDI chipset and a single USB port gives me 4 DB9 RS232 ports.

My ancient Prolific USB to serial converters have been ported from XP to
Windows 7 and recently to Windows 8.1.
They work flawlessly - both versions of Windows installed the proper drivers
with no direct intervention from me.
You might uninstall the USB converter, unplug it, reboot and then plu
cable from Kenwood that worked just fine.
That could be the problem you're running into.

I had a computer failure. The old prolific KUSB would not work at all on new
computer, even after loading newer drivers. A new FTDI KUSB from Elecraft
solved the problems.

Maybe the best move is to go with the latest FTDI serial -to-usb cable.
They have improved quite a bit over 6 years or more.

Elecraft switched to FTDI chips in mid-2010, so the Prolific driver isn't used
for more recent cables. This page has drivers for both chips.

I have been using the KUSB USB/serial converter between my K3 and PC for
both DXLab and n1mm. Lately, I have been having trouble with erratic
frequency readings, mainly on n1mm but sometimes on DXLab. On n1mm, this
seems to happen mainly when I change bands or after the radio has been in
standby
