[Elecraft] KX3: Source for quality 3.5mm 4 conductor-TRRS Plug

[Lance Collister, W7GJ]

I ordered my KX3 plugs from DigiKey and the were here VERY fast!  I am waiting for 
the arrival of my KX3 before I actually make the cables, though.  I will have to 
experiment a bit to see what I need to do to run digital modes with the KX3...I am 
hoping I might be able to get by just attenuating the LINE OUT from the computer but 
I don't know if that will give me enough isolation to the KX3 MIC IN or not.  I am 
very spoiled by the built-in interface of my K3.

GL and VY 73, Lance
