This page displays a 404 error, indicating the original content describing a simple _RS232 interface_ circuit is unavailable. The circuit was reportedly designed for older Kenwood transceivers and featured in chapter 22 of the _ARRL Handbook_. It likely involved basic electronic components for level shifting and signal conditioning between a computer's serial port and the radio's control interface. The intended project would have detailed the construction of a hardware interface, enabling CAT control for specific Kenwood models. Such interfaces typically convert TTL or CMOS logic levels from the radio to the +/-12V levels required by RS232, often utilizing ICs like the MAX232 or discrete transistor circuits. While the specific schematics and bill of materials are absent due to the page error, the context suggests a DIY electronics project for enhancing legacy amateur radio station functionality through computer control.

The Elecraft K2 transceiver requires specific modifications for optimal soundcard digital mode operation, particularly for PSK31. The original article, circa 2001, details initial challenges with manual PTT and speech compression settings. A key modification involves adding headphone audio and a compression disable signal to the K2's microphone jack, utilizing pins 4 and 5. The **COMP0** signal, active low, is shorted to ground via a non-inverting open collector switch circuit, comprising two resistors and two transistors, mounted on the SSB board near U3. This circuit provides effective control of an analog signal line with good noise immunity. The switchbox itself repurposes a computer COM port switch, using only two of its original connectors and four of the nine poles. It integrates a microphone preamplifier, a PTT circuit built with 'flying leads' construction, and RCA jacks for soundcard connections. A trimpot adjusts the audio drive to the K2. The central DB9 connector links to the K2's mic connector via a shielded RS232 serial cable, ensuring proper grounding and signal routing. An external footswitch PTT jack is also included. Further enhancements include a **noise-canceling microphone** preamp based on a QST December 2000 article, adapted for Heil mic elements. This preamp, built with pseudo-Manhattan style construction, provides a gain of approximately 2 by changing emitter resistors (R9 and R16) from 680 ohms to 330 ohms. A 10-ohm series resistor and 47 µF capacitor on the +5V supply mitigate noise spikes.
