Hi Tom

I have successfully used my SCS PTC IIex modem with my K2 for Winlink 
remote email application.  I interface it to the rig through the mic 
jack with the mod to bring receive audio to the mic jack through an 
unused pin.  I am thinking of adding a din receptacle to the back of 
the rig to make the connection direct and leave the mic jack free.

I run Pactor III with no trouble whatsoever and achieve great data 
throughput.  The K2 (QRP) with the SCS modem is a dynamite combination 
for keeping in touch via Winlink while traveling by boat, rv or even at 
the picnic table up at the cottage.  I can make connection with the 
host stations on 40 and 20 with a 22 foot wire thrown into a tree and a 
counterpoise.
