[Elecraft] Terrible Tragedy

[Timothy Gordish]

Yesterday, my shack went up in smoke.  Included in the rigs that became 
charred and melted piles of scrap was K1 #00569.  May it RIP.  (moment 
of silence)

Anyways, everything was insured for replacement, but I given the 
opportunity to design a station from the ground up I am considering my 
options.  High on the list of option is purchasing a K2 as the main 
rig, and a KX1 for portable us.  One of the important features on my 
new station is its flexibility on all the old and new digital modes.  I 
am interested in knowing if a rig to soundcard interface is necessary 
for the K2.  What is the most convenient method of using the rig on CW, 
SSB, and soundcard digital without having to constantly connect and 
reconnect cables.

My computer will be a Mac (like the one that melted) and I will be 
using MacLoggerDX, and Multimode OSX.
