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!!!

Holy heck what all did you have to get replaced for it to cost that
much?  Or was it mostly in time spent to find all the broken bits...
