KX2 KXUSB Cable

MaverickNH
I just can't find my KXUSB cable for my KX2 - not in the KX2 stuff box...

Will one of these suffice until I find a reason to place an order to Elecraft?  https://www.amazon.com/3-5mm-Audio-Adapter-Charge-Cable/dp/B00X77J9TQ/ref=pd_sim_23_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=59RSH9N3F8HBCVH9TCSM

Bret,

I don't think that will work - it is apparently not a USB to RS-232
converter, and who knows what the signals at the plug might be.  It is
advertised as a charging cable, so it likely only pipes the USB
connector +5V to the connected device.

You can get a KXUSB cable from Elecraft in 3 days or less if you choose
USPS Priority Mail or 1st class mail from the on-line order form.  If
the package is less than 13 oz, it can ship 1st class mail - the website
will indicate that it cannot be shipped that way by showing a shipping
charge of $99.00!

73,

The cable pictured has a TRRS 3.5 mm plug, not the TRS as on the real thing.

id skip it
