[600MRG] USB sound card

[J Mcvey]

I had the same problem. The new laptops use a 3.5mm (1/8") four conductor TRRS plug for the headsets.It does have a mike input if you get an adaptor to plug in and break it out to TRS phones TRS mike like the old style headsets with separate jacks.I have one that is one small plastic piecethat plugs in the side of the laptop with the two jacks for the separate items which is sold at radio shack.here is another type:http://www.amazon.com/SuperWhole-Earphone-Headset-Microphone-Adapter/dp/B0114AB0QW/ref=sr_1_12?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1454472826&sr=1-12&keywords=trrs+to+trs+adapter

 I have a new laptop on order but it lacks a microphone input.

I have never used an external USB sound card, but need some advice on what
kind to get.

I would like to feed the monoaural audio output from my Icom R-75 to the
soundcard, and have that audio go into my laptop USB port for decoding WSPR,
QRSS on Spectran, etc.

Do those soundcards have a provision for a headphone jack also?

 

Thanks for any help,
