ok here are a few things to follow for rtty/digital with the kx3

1) buy the cable kit from Elecraft

2) use a app like fldigi and use hamlib under rig control to do the keying

3) follow this link http://k4mtx.wordpress.com/2013/04/11/kx3-fldigi-setup/

there is no need for a signal link or other digital interface card .
