You could get a USB audio device and dedicate it to the radio interface,
or(/and) get a USB headset to use with Skype.

EMU-0202 is overkill for PSK, IMO - you should be able to find something
for a fraction of the cost that'd perform fine. You don't need 192kHz
sampling for this application ;)

There is a "PSK D" mode too, which supposedly allows PSK input via the
FSK pin on the accessory port, but I haven't tried that (or thought
through how it'd work).
