[David Christ]

Does anyone have any experience or opinions on this line of interfaces?

Focusrite is a well known mfr of pro and semi-pro audio gear with a good
reputation, but their products are overpriced for what we need for ham
radio. I would expect it to work well.  Here's an applications note I
wrote about 5 years ago and updated a year or two ago.  The ASUS U5 is a
very good performer and does everything we need for half the price. The
Numark is still available and works great.

I'm still using the Tascam US100 in my station, and am quite happy with it.

Jim,

I'd kind of like an interface with good performance that is smaller than
the computer I'm using with it.

Any suggestions?

Hi Lynn,

The Numark, Tascam US100, and ASUS U5 are not very big.  The tiny things
I've seen are cheap junk.

A key part of my question has to do with size.

I want something small enough to toss in a bag with my laptop and my KX3
and take camping.

I use the ASUS U7. Fits well in my camera bag with the radio. Works good
with PSK-31 and other digi modes. Ugly part is all the cables and it is
pretty easy to knock the big knob on top and throw that adjustment off.

I use the NuMark for my desktop/K3, and the Griffin iMic for my laptop/kx3.  Both work well.

I've had good results with an older Behringer unit, the UCA202. I've been using it for 6m WSPR for the past few years without an issue.

Not at all huge.
