True if all you want to run is with the TNC, but with the soundcard
adapter in the PK-232, I think you'd end up having to switch cables on
the PK-232 from the Radio 1/2 connector to the FSK connector and back,
even with the soundcard adapter installed in the TNC. The whole idea is
not to have to switch cables when going between TNC modes and soundcard
modes.
