Dave,
I use the Afedri with my K3. Works great with NaP3 as well as SDR-Radio,
Spectravue, CuteSDR..... One cable to the radio (SMA-BNC) and USB cable to
the computer. I also connected it to my networking switch so I can use
other apps that support it's networking mode. I chose it for it's
simplicity with just a cable either way. No seperate sound cards etc.
Works fine no problems on iMac run OSX 10.8 and bootcamp in Windows 7/64.
Let me know if you want any more info.
Michael, AA5SH
