KX3: SDR Software Solution!

[W0JFR]

I have been trying to find a good computer SDR software solution to use
with my KX3.

First, I tried LPB2 with NaP3. NaP3 had an incredible amount of images,
and this software combination with the KX3 caused random loss of CW
elements (Like lose a dit in 'r'). Larry Phipps said this didn't
surprise him since he had never tested LPB2 with the KX3.

Second, I tried the TRX version of LP-Bridge with TRX-Pan. TRX-Pan works
great; however, I got slow, infrequent frequency updates in N1MM.

Does anyone have a solid SDR and virtual serial port software solution
for the KX3 (short of a PX3!)?

Thanks!

I am using VSPE software to share serial port for NaP3 and Logger32
logging program. SDR program is NaP3.
I have not found better way to add "virtual PX3" for KX3 except this.
I sometimes have unexpected error on NaP3 though...

John,
LPB2 has a lot of problems. If you want to go with NaP3, use LP Bridge. I have used that for a while and it works great. But, I have found a better solution, Win4K3. It uses com0com for port replication vice LPB and appears to be much smoother. I just did the WPX this weekend with N1MM+ and had zero issues.
