[Elecraft] K3 Confussion - Help Please

[Edward R. Cole]

John,

I have my K3 connected to my computer exactly as described by Don 
W3FPR.  I bought 1/8-inch mini-phone connector audio cables from 
RS.  These connectors mate most computers and the K3.  I bought the 
KUSB Serial to USB adaptor cable when I ordered my K3.  It is the 
Prolific version but worked fine after downloading new driver from 
prolific.  That cable is no longer sold by K3 so not an issue.  The 
new KUSB cable is based on FTDI chipset.

I run all kinds of soundcard sw with the K3 with this wiring 
interface.  You must use DATA mode for this and suggest you read the 
respective section of the K3 manual about this.  There are several 
DATA selections depending on data mode desired.  Have question about 
that come back and ask after reading the DATA sections.

I am expert user of WSJT: JT65, MAP65 and WSPR, but not the HF 
JT65.  I also run ARGO, psk-31, QRSS.  Looking into running Opera, ROS.
