Whoa! *Any* signal you receive with an antenna is *analog*. You may
convert it to digital for detection but it is an analog signal. In
addition, any voice (phone) signal started out life as an analog
pressure wave impacting the diaphragm of a microphone which produced
an analog electrical voltage.

My single disappointment in the KX3 is that it has a forest of cables instead of a
single USB port. I understand that the available USB chips create a lot of RF noise,
but dang, we've had USB for fifteen years, and it just chafes me that we're fussing
with the best A/D converter for a signal that was originally digital. That
D->A->D path just seems wrong.

Maybe not a big problem on HF, but I wonder..
I am not saying that the Signalink is bad. Apparently it is widely used and
appreciated. I just want to get the best possible product to use with my KX3,
being it a Signalink or something else. Suggestions are welcome.
Anyway, it would be cool if Elecraft made one..

Gil,
What kind of noise problem are you referring to? I use a SL USB with my K3 with
no issue.

Hello,
I was going to buy a Signalink USB for my KX3, but after reading about the
noise problems I am not so sure. I wish Elecraft would build a USB interface…
It would undoubtedly be a hot seller and I am sure perform flawlessly… Anyone
in support…?
Gil.
