Pull the bail down and clamp to that by clamping gently to the rubber
on each side. Then you can slide a SignaLing USB into the empty spot
under the front of the K3.

The simple answer is yes, sure. If you are using the IQ data for
spectrum display, you tell CWskimmer to use that very same data
stream/sound card. It only really works with the Windows MME driver and
only sometimes works with the ASIO drivers. Ihave been doing this now

I have successfully used the KX3 RX I/Q with CW Skimmer. You will need a sound
card with stereo input (Signalink won’t work) and possibly isolation

Your deep suspicion is probably unjustified.
Certainly, examples can be found of inefficient antennas which suffer some

I never said anything about base loading. That's where most of the
current is, and therefore the most opportune location to create loss.
There's no current at the end (top), of course, so a loading coil does
no good at all there ... somewhere in between is generally best.

The wattmeter in the KAT100 has been damaged - diodes D1 and D2.
