The SoftRock radios are indeed inexpensive and interesting, and can be used for WSPR and similar. A better choice, however, could well be the Peaberry V2 replacement, soon to be available again from Omnia SDR. See the URL: http://www.omnia-sdr.com/index.php?main_page=index=65 This radio covers

Looking for feedback when using MMTY and either the K3s or K3 w/ the KIO3B upgrade. My plan is to simplify digital interface cabling by replacing a MicroHam USB Interface III with the newly released KIO3B boards for the K3. My assumption is that the KIO3B's USB port will handle both audio and

But if you plug it into a DIFFERENT USB port, Windows will think it's a new device, and assign ANOTHER COM port to it. That's true only in so far as the USB device does not have a unique serial number. The USB device descriptor in the EEPROM has a place for a serial number but many

The WriteLog Ports settings are the same as before. The Com port number needs to be the same in WriteLog as in the K3 USB port on your PC. There are no isolation transformers because the audio in and out of the K3 is digital via USB. Your PC will now list an additional sound card which is the

Hi Paul, The KIO3B easily handles the audio in and out for AFSK with MMTTY. I've never tried PTT when running AFSK -- just use VOX. For FSK you still have to break out serial port lines for Key In and PTT and feed them to the the ACC port but that is easily done with a couple of transistors.
