K3 Line-In Mono

[Bud Governale, W3LL]

The manual says K3 Line-In is connected to the PC soundcard output using a Mono connector.
My PC sound card line output is a stereo connection. It also connects via stereo splitters to PC amplified speakers and
other stereo line inputs using stereo connectors.

Can I use a stereo connector to the K3 Line-In? Alternatives?

73,

Bud,

Just use stereo connectors.  The K3 end uses a stereo jack, but only one
side is used (the tip=left channel from soundcard).
