Tim,

Look at the KXPA100 manual page 12 for the connections.  That is for the 
KX3 - the PC connects to the KXPA100, the KX2 is similar.  You will need 
the KX2ACBL to use the KXPA100 with the KX2. That is in addition to the 
cable that comes with the KXPA100.

Those cables have nothing to do with the audio in and out for soundcard 
data modes, but will convey frequency and other data between the KX2 and 
the soundcard data software.  You will have to connect the soundcard 
audio output to the microphone jack on the KX2 and the soundcard audio 
input to the PHONES jack on the KX2.

Win4K3 has a great many features that you may want to take advantage of 
- study the WIN4K3 webpage to determine if it will enhance your 
particular operation.

73,
Don W3FPR
