[Elecraft] [KX3] New behavior using JT65

Dave,

Are you using VOX?  If so, try replacing the cable between the soundcard 
and the KX3 mic jack, I am thinking it may have a broken shield and is 
picking up noise.

Try switching to PTT instead of VOX.  I don't know your software 
application nor its capabilities, but you likely need a "one transistor 
keying interface" to drive the KX3 PTT input.
