I use Tigertronics SignalLink SL-1+ along with a Griffin iMic to run  
CocoaModem on my iMac (800MHz G4).  I am very pleased with the  
combination.   I have an IC-756 PRO-II.  The SL-1+ hooks up to the  
accessory connector on the back of the PRO-II.  This leaves the mic  
and phones clear for SSB operation.  I would think this would be  
similar with the K2/100.

While none of this is a kit, you do get to install the jumpers in the  
SL-1+ to configure it for your rig.  :-)
