Hi Simon and Julian,

thank you for your support. I'd also appreciate that if such a signal would
come out of the K3. Others (IC-7700 et al.) support that too, sometimes via
USB or ethernet. I'm not happy to digitalize the analog line out audio
signal external into a PCM stream by using e.g. a microcontroller because of
the additional signal propagation delay of the ADC conversion. For using the
K3 as a remote TRX it is nowadays not state-of-the-art to let a PC run all
days long. A modified wireless lan router is less expensive, regarding its
power comsumption. I already thought about using a wireless lan router w/
integrated VoIP port (where you an plug in an analog telephone) to plug the
line out and the line in port of the K3 to this device by using an
"telephone"-interface to solve that problem. That could provide a audio
connection e.g. via skype to the K3 from all places, if you want even by
using a standard telephone line to "call" the K3 from every fixed line or
cell phone. Hw ?
