Monster K3

[Don Rasmussen]

The mad artist is back at work. What if the K3 had dedicated band and mode buttons and an analog S-Meter? A dedicated filter width display?  This one works that way in cyberspace. This is an actual screen print of a working virtual radio.

If you want to click a screen display to operate you k3 why not just
L-P PAN and PowerSDR?

Hi Don


Separate controls for the Monitor would have been nice. ON/OFF and level.

Same goes for MIC gain, power and processor. I know that you have limited real estate to play with.

What program did you use to do those images?

The most sensible layout for a radios front panel that I have seen is the FT5000. Even the smaller FT950  has a well laid out front panel. If the K3 had a front panel like the FT5000 boy would it sell!

Maybe the K4-XXX will be such a beast. I would be happy to pay the deposit.
