[Elecraft] Planning the next filters

[Bill Frantz]

Since SignaLinks seem to be a continuing topic, one thing I 
noticed with mine is that the manufacturer seems to have been 
upgrading the design. When I first heard (probably from Jim) 
that there were problems with the SignaLink, I found a web site 
with directions for fixing some of them. So I warmed up my 
soldering iron and opened my SignaLink. When I looked carefully, 
every single one of the issues on the web site had been 
addressed in my unit.

I got a Tascam 24 bit device, which I used for several years, 
but it wouldn't work on my Linux BeagleBone, because of the lack 
of drivers. It worked well on my Mac. Now I'm using the KIO3B 
upgrade to my K3 and am quite happy with it. The SignaLink has 
moved to my portable KX3 station, where I'm looking for a 
smaller, lighter solution.
