K3: bandscope etc etc

[MontyS]

My vote would be for a dedicated PC running Linux or Windows inside the K3.
Looks like plenty of room on top of the second receiver.
Otherwise, someone has only one PC in the shack?  I have 3,
one running Echolink, one running APRS software, and the notebook
connected to my K3 and awaiting Larry's LP-PAN.

Eeek, no!! What on earth would you want to do inside a radio that requires an operating system, with its attendant need for patches and updates, susceptibility to viruses etc? Not to mention all the noise a computer generates.

Just food for thought....

Everything with a computer has an "operating system" of some sort...
