Huh re "The SignaLink is geared strictly for using the radio's audio
in/out for doing digital modes."? Not in the current Signalink USB. And
a good thing. The 11" MacBook Air I use for such things has mic and
earphones on a 4-conductor jack so I prefer not messing with the
internal audio vs. that in the Signalink USB for PSK31. As Don says, not
good if you need to deal with KX3 I/Q outputs, but I use a PX3 for that :-)

I agree. The SignaLink is geared strictly for using the radio's
audio in/out for doing digital modes. But, I do suggest Win4K3. After
having used both for a while, I concluded that Win4K3 is more a match
for the KX3.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] USB Soundcard
Tim,
Because you want to use the KX3 RX I/Q outputs to produce a spectrum
display, you must have a soundcard with a stereo input.
That rules out the SignaLink which has only a mono input.
The Asus U5 or U7 will do the job for you quite nicely, and costs
less than the SignaLink.
You can use the Asus for both digital modes and a spectral display.
Look at NaP3 or Win4K3 software applications.

Please could anyone shed some light as to what type of USB Sound
card I can use as my entire range of Laptops - are only fitted with
Mic-In and not a Stereo Line-In.
I have managed to procure a stereo 2.5 to 3.5mm male-male audio lead.
I am hoping to be able to see the I/Q output from my recently built
KX3 - using some software tools.
Looking forward to hearing what works/does not work well.
Many thanks
