The SignaLink is only handling audio. You need a separate cable between
the radio and computer for CAT control.

Hi Tim,
Thanks for responding! I keep getting a "rig control error, do you
want to reconfigure the radio interface?" when I key the radio. I've
tried seemingly everything so far to no avail. I have the 2 signalink
cables in the right ports and no matter what options I try in rig
control I get the error. I HAVE ordered one of those USB sound cards
but this signalink should work. I AM receiving signals and decoding
them. Are you using the KXUSB with your set up and if so, whick port
on the KX2 is it in? Right now I've got mine in the acc. jack. Like I
said, I'm trying everything with no luck.

I just recently got FT8 going with my KX2. I also have a SignaLink
USB but
chose not to haul it along for portable operation. I purchased a
$6.49 USB
soundcard and it works great! If you are looking for a more portable
alternative I have the details of my configuration posted on my blog:
