A *very* good reason for using a second soundcard is that Windows will not use it for send the clicks, clacks and beeps you hear while playing with your PC. On SSTV it's easy to see when someone is using the internal soundcard instead of second card. A good soundcard will not suffer from intermod - just like a good radio. So even if you don't want to shell out for a microHam spend $50 and get a second soundcard anyway and use this for your radio.
