See my findings at http://g4fre.blogspot.co.uk/2014/09/interfacing-elecraft-k3-to-acer-v5.html Dave G4fre From: Rich <[email protected]> Subject: [Elecraft] Win 8.1 audio and the K3 Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed First off I do not see this issue as a K3 problem but I am hoping someone else has found a fix. My new HP laptop has a single audio jack hence i need a Y adapter to get a mic and speaker jack to run the digital modes. When I plug the K3 line OUT into the Laptop mic IN (via the adapter or direct) Win 8.1 does not recognize that I plugged into the MIC jack, however if I plug into the K3 speaker out then Win 8.1 sees the jack properly. I assume there is some value of impedance or voltage that Win 8.1 is looking for that the K3 line out does not have. Only a guess on my part. Has anybody else seen this? Is there a fix? Thank you Rich K3RWN ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
