Joe has already provided one reason why there is little point in using the computer soundcard for receive and the K3 DSP for transmit. As he said, it would be much more difficult to ensure that TX and RX are both on precisely the same frequency as if the soundcard was doing both, and they do need

I'm either missing something or I have a feature request for KComm, depending on whether I have misunderstood how to use the software! I've been looking for a contest / general purpose logger for data modes from the K3 that can make use of the K3's PSK D and FSK D modes for RTTY and PSK31, i.e.
