[Elecraft] Computer Speakers

Nope....And a Y connector doesn't work too well either. The low impedance 
speaker output of the K3 will swamp the computer's higher impedance output 
resulting in weak audio from the computer. A switching arrangement or some 
kind of mixer would work. Otherwise you will need separate speakers for your 
K3. I'm using a Logitech THX speaker system for both the PC and K3 and am 
manually switching between the sources.

Anyone,
I will soon be receiving my K3 and I do have a question.

Normally my computer line out connects to my computer speakers.  When I get 
my K3 is there a speaker connection on the K3 that will also output audio 
out from the computer such as when not using the radio but still using the 
computer?

Or do I have to get a stereo Y connector at the line out connection on the 
K3?

Many thanks in advanced.
