Re: [Elecraft] SignaLink and KX3
For FT8 on my KX-3 I didn't use a Signalink for years. When I was having trouble with Winlink, a ham friend suggested I use a Signalink. Didn't I need it? david, KC1DNY On 8/20/2022 10:12 AM, Neil Zampella wrote: You really don't need a Signalink to do digital modes and the KX3.

Even that is overkill. I use a $15 Sabrent soundcard from Amazon with my KX3.
