K3 external Keyboard

Kurt Loken
Hello All,

I'm thinking about making the plunge and getting on
the list for the K3.

I have a Micro908 that I might be selling to add to my
funds for the purchase (yes, I will consider offers).
I bought the optional keyboard that came with the 908
when I bought the kit...but a use for it never
materialized.

It is nice little keyboard and when I heard that the
K3 could do digital modes and decode without a
computer, I thought...well maybe I finally have a use
for my little keyboard.  

Alas, I don't see how an external keyboard connects to
the K3 by looking at the pics of the back end.  Can
you connect a keyboard to the K3 without an external
computer being involved?

Thanks,

Kurt - ae6uj

I think I read somewhere that there is a connector on the bottom of the
K3 that may be used in the future for the keyboard.
