[Elecraft] Making a Signalink cable for the K3's 8-pin mic connector

[Phil Wheeler]

I have the SL-USB and the Tigertronics cable set 
and jumper block for the K2. When I acquired the 
K3 I considered using the front mic connection 
with the K3. I concluded the K2 cable and block 
would work with the K3. Never tested it because I 
ended up using the rear connections for the SL_USB.

Perhaps someone has gone farther with this and can 
confirm or deny.
