[Elecraft] SignaLink USB and K2

John,

My fixed audio output is just what it says - it provides a level of 
audio OUTPUT from the K2 independent of the setting of the AF gain control.
It does nothing for the audio INPUT.  The input (to the mic jack) is 
what is depicted on the Tigertronics website.  Note that the mic wiring 
shown assumes that you have configured your K2 to use the Elecraft (or 
Kenwood) microphone pinout.  If you are using a microphone that is wired 
for anything other than Elecraft or Kenwood, you will have to alter the 
wiring of the SignalLink to match your mic wiring.

73,
