[Elecraft] K3S MIC+LIN

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

Actually if you read the N1MM+ documentation, you will find that if
you check "Radio 1 Output Device is an Internal Radio CODEC" on the
Audio tab, (or the "Internal Radio CODEC" box in the Audio Setup &
Monitor screen if you are using the N1MM+ Audio option) N1MM+ will
switch the K3S from mic to LINE IN (CODEC) when playing a WAV file
and switch back to MIC in when the WAV file terminates.

There is no need to use MIC+LIN with the K3S.  The same approach *may*
work with a K3 and Line Out/Line IN but I haven't tried it.
