I think what he is trying to do is use iSDR on the iPad to hear the signals he is touching. The I/Q goes to the line in and the headphones go to the out on the iMic. What he needs to do is set the iMic to "mic" not line to make the signal the iPad sees stronger and adjust iSDR gain settings in the iPad settings app. When using the iMic with computers normally the settings should be "line" when used with the KX3 I/Q input. And yes when trying to listen directly off the KX3 "phones" should be where to hook up headphones or powered speakers.
Hope this helps everybody 73 Jeff, K7GDE On Jun 6, 2013, at 9:01 AM, Walter Underwood <[email protected]> wrote: > The I/Q output is not for listening.
