To the original poster who could not even receive.

The RigBlaster is not used during receive. The audio goes straight from the K2 (I use the ext speaker jack) to the Line IN jack on your sound card. Until you can properly receive PSK, SSTV, RTTY, etc, there is no point in connecting up the RigBlaster.

Once you have receive working, the instructions supplied for the K2 should work for transmitting but that will depend upon how you wired the microphone connector on your K2. Make sure you have the RigBlaster jumpered so that the signals appear on the same pins as they do on your microphone.

The only problem I encountered was not being able to use the microphone through the RigBlaster due to hum on my audio. I suspect this is a grounding issue caused in part by not having the microphione jack in the K2 grounded in my version, S/N 2221. Next time I open it up for mods, it is my To Do list.

  I'm using a RigBlaster Plus with a K2 and MixW, and it's been
  trial-and-error to get it set up for data (PSK-31, etc).

  I would also be interested in what others had to say about the
  setup.  Did you get any replies to your posting above?  If so,
  please share them with us, if you can.
