[Elecraft] What's best Soundcard Interface for KX3

[Don Wilhelm]

George,

So use the 1st option until you can get the plugs and jacks to construct 
the adapter.

For VOX, just set VOX on - hold the button just to the lower left of the 
VFO A knob.  It is a per-mode setting.

Are you using the correct DATA sub-mode?  There are 4 and you should be 
using DATA A which should default to USB (If it is using the wrong 
sideband, the ALT button (Hold MODE) will change the sideband.
Tap DATA a second time and rotate the VFO B knob until you see DATA A.
The advantage of DATA A over SSB is that compression is turned off and 
TX EQ is turned to flat automatically.

Adjust your audio level (computer soundcard output slider and MIC Gain 
until you have 4 bars solid on the ALC meter with the 5th bar flickering.
Adjust the desired power output with the PWR knob.  Ignore the 
conventional advice for "no ALC" on the internet and also ignore the 
internat advice to adjust the power with the audio level.  That advice 
is for transceivers other than Elecraft.  Elecraft is different than 
other ham transceivers in the way power is controlled.

73,
