[Elecraft] SignaLink Wiring

[nr4c at widomaker.com]

May I suggest temporary put the SLUSB aside and connect to computer sound  
card and get things working.  This will give u a chance to get familiar with  
the connections required and then introduce the SLUSB.

I used a SLUSB with my Kenwood and ot was quite easy to set up.  I have not  
found it necessary to use it with K3.

Well, I appreciate the help, but I cannot get the SignaLink working.  I 
can use my computer soundcard, but not the SLUSB.  I was even able to 
make a WINMOR connection (with the PC soundcard); however, my transmit 
to receive turnaround time is slow.  I read about making the radio use 
the same tx and rx filters.  I'll try that.

Regarding the SLUSB, I may not be hooking it up correctly on the back of 
the radio, but I'm not sure where else I'd hook it up without turning 
off something on the front.  I'm using LINE IN and LINE OUT for audio, 
but nothing seems to make it to the software (any software).

I'm new to this K3 and I know I'll eventually figure it out.  I will 
admit, I have not completely read the manual - I have been focusing on 
the DATA section.

Thanks again.
