Just an FYI for anyone interested. Several years ago I opted to use Blind Skimmer's waterfall because I found it so convenient for fast S&P (due to Skimmer's ability to quickly jump to *exact* zero beat...see video below).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZDXuOgUQJ0I asked Alex VE3NEA if the new K3S might change the 24 kHz limitation (Softrock on IF mode). Below is his response.

Hi Bill,
Sorry for the late reply, I have just returned from a 2-week trip and started to answer my email.
No, the presence of the USB and RS232 ports in the radio does not change the bandwidth processed by CW Skimmer in the IF mode, sorry.

Hi Alex,
The data sheet says:
"Includes both USB and RS232 ports; Using USB port eliminates need for PC sound card and line-level audio cables (line in/out
jacks still included)"
http://www.elecraft.com/manual/K3S%20Data%20Sheet%20rev%20A1.pdfWould this remove the 24 kHz limitation using Skimmer?
