Jim  and Jorge

I was merely answering Jorge's  question.   perhaps I should have 
given better advice and steered Jorge away from signal link  as you did. I
do agree that a signalink or similar is far from ideal and even less so on
the K3 as it would be doubling up on the isolation transformers that are
already part of the KIO3 board in the K3 possibly leading to additional loss
in quality.

so to Jorge Diez  here is my revised answer!

   Forget the signal link, Rigblaster or other commercial fit all rigs 
type solution.   get a good high quality sound adapter like the tascam 
from B&H as stated in Jims article  you will be way better off this way for
decoding and encoding for psk, rtty SSTV and  more important JTXX, WSPR etc.
than the users of the mediocre commercial  "fit all 
rigs" solutions and at a better price.   I think setting up with this 
would actually be simpler than mucking about with the jumpers etc of 
the signalink   there is no need for a PTT connection either as most 
digial software will handle this via command or vox.   keep it 
available for a foot switch.

 I am using an old M-Audio mobile pre USB  that was retired from field
recording sound effects.  its perfect for this use.  I believe it was Jim's
article some years ago that lead me this way and I'm glad I did.

PS  B&H  is a great source for this kind of stuff  I use them for most of my
audio and photo needs.
