I think I may just be overcome by an embarrassment of riches. I have recently acquired a K3 and the serial to USB cable to run the utility program. I would like to try digital -- particularly PSK31 -- which I now do with IC7000 and Signalink TNC. I have been using FLDIGI satisfactorily. My question is whether (1) I should try to run FLDIGI with my K3 directly through the RS232/USB cable, (2) should I get the cable and jumper card for K3 for the Signalink, (3) should I get the "tridentate" cable set to connect with the K3 using the line-in/line-out/ptt connections on the back? An amusing side thing: I had my K3 tuned to 14.070 upper side band and I booted up FLDIGI on my laptop with no physical connection between them. To my amazement, I saw a waterfall display and, when I placed the cursor on a nice strong signal, I saw decoded text. I can only assume that the laptop's microphone was open and FLDIGI picked it up from the audio output of my radio. Alternatively, it may have been an occult message to me that I need to better understand the mechanics of digital :-} TNX for any advice especially if I can understand it.
