I've been using my K3/100 with a Signalink USB for nearly 2 years and, once 
set correctly, the pair work flawlessly. The instructions for power setting in 
digital modes are repeated many times on this reflector and were hard to miss 
when I went looking for help.  Once you accept that it's the ALC that's set 
first, and that the power output is then controlled by the K3 power control, 
the setup routine is easy. 

I wonder whether some creative YouTube videographer could document the setup 
routine for all to see? It would save a lot of typing and give newcomers a very 
clear set of visual instructions. I would have found that helpful. 

It's a set and then forget procedure. Very simple, but the various gain 
settings are interactive so it seems a little tricky when you first set the 
ALC. But once set, it's done. 

I monitor my IMD off air using the neat KK7UQ monitor and the IMD on PSK31 is 
-29 to -30 dB on my K3 @ 40W out.

I run PSK, Olivia modes and Hellschreiber and the K3/Signalink combo works FB 
for them all.
