added protection for rs232

[N5AG]

To ALL,

Believe that a surge from the AC line through the computer WILL damage a
K3.....to the tune of $984.94!!!  Disconnect or check June QST page 63 for a new
product. VSC-X Wireless Serial Cable From Coastal Chip Works.

 

73,
Griff....N5AG
 
IF YOU DON'T THINK EVERY DAY IS A GOOD DAY, JUST TRY MISSING ONE!!!
