[Elecraft] AFSK - K3 - SignaLink USB

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

You will also see that other than the audio derived PTT
that is unnecessary with the K3, the functions of SLUSB
can be performed better (e.g. stereo receive) and at a
lower cost with a sub-$20 CM108 based USB dongle like this:

The choice of an interface is not simply one of a second
sound card, it should be driven by the user's operating
needs, software and convenience.
