If you look at the jumper configuration in Fig 2 & 3 of the Signalink 
USB documentation, you can insert the capacitor, in place of the 
jumper,  between the MIC pin on JP1 and the corresponding Mic Input 
terminal on JP1.   A 0.1 mfd 50 V disk ceramic should be very 
adequate.   That will block the DC bias from the radio and keep it from 
saturating the output transformer T2

The schematic is available  at this link.
