Andy,

I use a USB "sound adapter", now available for only $7.50 from computer 
geeks.com

I just use a Radio Shack audio cable with a 1/4" earphone plug on one end and a 
1/8" mini-plug on the other end to the Mic input of the USB sound adapter for 
receive.

For transmit, I cut a Radio Shack stereo patch cable with 1/8" miniplugs in 
half, and solder two wires from a microphone plug for the transceiver to the 
cut end and plug that into the USB sound adapter earphone output jack.

I then just use the transceiver VOX for PTT.

I did not even need any isolation transformers (which I usually need for my 
Yaesu FT-980) with other interfaces, in order to prevent feedback.

The SignaLink USB also works, but costs $100.
