[Elecraft] [Bulk] Re: KX3 Internal soundcard

[Ken Alexander]

Myself, I would prefer not to lose my 2m capability.  There seems to be 
more extra space inside the PX3 cabinet for options, if you don't mind 
being tied to a PX3.

I don't necessarily need an internal sound card.  I'm very happy with 
the external soundcard I use with my notebook computer. However, I won't 
ever buy another transceiver that doesn't have a dedicated Data jack, 
even if it does say Elecraft on the front.  I find it a pain to be 
constantly unplugging cables and inserting new ones each time I change 
modes.  I'm afraid of wearing out the 3.5mm jacks on the KX3 with all 
the inserting in and removing of plugs.  I know I can use Y-adapters, 
but that only adds to the considerable mess hanging off the side of my KX3.

73,

Ken Alexander
