[Elecraft] CW, Data and phone interface?

[Don Wilhelm]

Rich,

Yes, all that is needed is a pair of cables with 3.5mm stereo plugs 
between the K3 and the computer soundcard and you can do digital with 
VOX - add the RS-232 cable and software that provides the proper 
controls (HRD/DM780 does, others use DTR or RTS - set the K3 menu 
correctly).

Others can answer about the N1MM, but if you are considering CW through 
the computer, I suggest the K1EL Winkey - the K3 can handle "KY" 
commands through the RS-232 connection, but few software applications 
implement that.

The Microkeyer can be used as the soundcard, but I know nothing about 
its DVK capabilities.

73,
