Blackbird455,
When you get the new SX-Key, I recommend that you
don't
solder it directly to any board you have. Buy a header strip such as this...
www.jameco.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10001&catalogId=10001&pa=686428CG&productId=686428
...and solder it onto your board. It'll be the best 38 cents you ever spent.
Thanks,
PeterM

From your picture, I know that you are using an SX-Blitz USB. Please be aware that the SX-Keys currently shipped come with an RS-232 interface. So you might also need a USB to serial adapter.
