as soon as the KIO3UPKT is plugged in I get the hum. The KIO3UPKT
seems to function just fine in all other ways except for inducing
this noise. Any ideas???
*BOND* the chassis of the K3/K3S, your computer, your power supply,
and your HiFi system together with a 1/2" braid, #12 or larger wire.
Make sure both the computer, power supply and HiFi supply are all
connected to the same outlet/back box.  SeeK9YC's excellent tutorial:

Howdy folks...

I've been chasing this problem for a while thinking it was in my audio system.....but NO!! I use a laptop computer with an external HIFI audio board. The HIFI audio board drives a very nice amplified JBL speaker system with a subwoofer. The external audio board occupies one USB port on my laptop....when I plug the KIO3UPKT cord into any of the other 3 USB ports on my laptop I get what sounds like 60 cycle hum out of my HIFI audio system. It doesn't matter which port I plug the HIFI audio interface into....as soon as the KIO3UPKT is plugged in I get the hum. The KIO3UPKT seems to function just fine in all other ways except for inducing this noise. Any ideas???
