FAQ
Q: I have an Apple computer and a Linux computer. Do I need to order the KXSERa instead of the KXUSB?
A: No. At order time, a KXSERa cable can be substituted for the KXUSB. The KXSER cable is designed to connect to a 9-pin COM port on a computer.
If you have a USB port on your computers, we recommend the KXUSB cable that ships automatically with the KX3 or KX2 and other Elecraft products.
Q: I have an older laptop that still has a 9-pin COM port on it but it also has USB ports available. Which cable should I use?
A: Where possible, we always recommend the KXUSB cable. This cable provides the flexibility to connect to most any newer computer available today.
Q: I ordered the KXSERa cable when I ordered my KX3 and KX2. I have now changed computers which only has USB ports. What should I do?
A: You can order the KXUSB cable separately as Elecraft product KXUSBa.
