Interesting observation. I did some comparisons using my KK7UQ IMD Meter to
measure the TX IMD and observed no significant difference.

One of the many reasons I gave up Linux as being too much hassle. I couldn't
get Fldigi to run at all on it, since I wasn't using the same distribution
the developer used to compile it, which is probably the same reason you had
trouble with KComm. Also there is no way to allow two programs to share a
serial port in Linux, unlike Windows with the VSPE, so I couldn't use KComm
and Fldigi both at the same time, even if I had got it working.
