[Elecraft] USB Soundcard

[Ryan Noguchi]

Tim,
I have no complaints about the ASUS Xonar U5, which I use with Fldigi, MMTTY, etc. I don't have enough personal experience with alternatives to be able to compare its performance, but you'll find technical comparisons of the U5 with other sound cards from an amateur radio perspective in several places by searching the web, and the U5 tends to be highly recommended, as is the slightly more expensive U7. Reading http://www.telepostinc.com/soundcards.html and http://audiosystemsgroup.com/USB_Interfaces.pdf led me to buy the U5.

Please could anyone shed some light as to what type of USB Sound card I can use as my entire range of Laptops - are only fitted with Mic-In and not a Stereo Line-In.

I have managed to procure a stereo 2.5 to 3.5mm male-male audio lead.

I am hoping to be able to see the I/Q output from my recently built KX3 - using some software tools.

Looking forward to hearing what works/does not work well.

Many thanks

Tim, A45wg. Muscat
