I don't see how it could without having an auxbus port. However the KX3

I have done the mods and I'm running 00.30 and I'm still a bit off.
My XG2 puts out ~-74dBm give or take a few tenths last time I measured
it on our 80K spectrum analyzer and my combination reads -81dBm on the

accounted for and
Amplitude calibration is not yet implemented in the firmware.
As for SSB peaks do you have peak hold turned on when you are viewing

No the K3 already has transformer isolated line in and line out
connections. These make for very simple connections to onboard sound
cards and if you need an outboard sound card with just two 3.5mm audio
ports these can be had for less than 20 bucks online.
