I have had good experiences so far with the FT8 box from HB9HCI. A small kit based on a Rapsbery, easy to assemble without soldering. The connection for example with the Elecraft KX2 goes with cable. The connection with a tablet computer is wireless. I have only had good experiences with it.

Info in English and German on the inventor’s page:
