[Elecraft] Trying to get on FT-8 with my KX2

[Tommy]

Hi Tim,

     Thanks for responding! I keep getting a "rig control error, do you 
want to reconfigure the radio interface?" when I key the radio. I've 
tried seemingly everything so far to no avail.  I have the 2 signalink 
cables in the right ports and no matter what options I try in rig 
control I get the error. I HAVE ordered one of those USB sound cards but 
this signalink should work. I AM receiving signals and decoding them. 
Are you using the KXUSB with your set up and if so, whick port on the 
KX2 is it in? Right now I've got mine in the acc. jack. Like I said, I'm 
trying everything with no luck.
