K3: USB port

[K2QI]

Eric,

What are you doing away from the Zed? This isn't your usual stomping ground. :)

Anyway, your posts are showing up, otherwise I wouldn't be responding.

[Larry - K2GN]

These 3 topics have dominated this reflector for the past 2 weeks.
Guys, please search the archives before you post.
Some of these questions have been answered before, in fact,
Eric asked for the USB thread(s) to end, yet they still keep coming.

Please save the band width for topics that may prove to be new
and worthwhile reading.  
I have 60+ emails in my "Deleted Items" folder just from today so far!!
Any cut back in this topics will be appreciated.
Thank you,
