Hi Jorge,The "Y"connector will not work, There is a very specific connector with three rings and a tip needed for that single new style jack on the laptops because that jack incorporates both a mono input for the mic and a stereo output for the headphones. A very specific connector I found that works is the Sennheiser, part no. PCV 05, called Combo Audio Adapter with a produce code of 504518. That part has worked well for me. I found that part at a Fry's Electronics in Austin, TX. An alternative is buy a cheap gaming headset that utilizes that single jack and splice in the mono plug for the mic and the stereo plug for the headphone to go to the K3. I hope this helps. 73, Mike WA5POK

Just need a Y cable to connect LIN IN and OUT in K3 and on the other side a 3.5 mm audio connector to connect in the laptop and all will be working correctly? Or is better to stay with a laptop with two separates connectors for MIC and PHONE? thanks Jorge CX6VM/CW5W <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Libre de virus. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2> ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to mikefur...@att.net ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
