SDR with KX3? IF-PSDR use?

Brian Pepperdine

With all the talk of trying to get KX3 working with NaP3... I have to ask.What about using IF-PSDR?
I use IF-PSDR on my K3 with LP-Pan/Bridge and like it.I tried NaP3 last winter (when I was active before good weather) and I found I did not like it. That's me, I guess.
Anyone know why the attention is only on the one software, it seems?I think initially I was hearing about HDSDR (I am right?) back in the early talk on KX3, but don't about it all now, that I can discern or recall.

Brian,
I use NaP3 with my KX3. It is set up to fully function with the KX3, ala the FlexRado series. I can either control my KX3 with NaP3 or just reflect what I'm doing with the radio, and the monitor than functions like a panadapter. As far as I can see, NaP3 is the only software package that I can do this with.

I have tried HDSDR, PowerSDR-IQ, and PowerSDR-IF. The first two played well, but wasn't quite as all inclusive as NaP3. PowerSDR-IF doesn't seem to play well on my Windows 7 system. It appears that NaP3 is basically PowerSDR-IQ with a few enhancements. The only downside I've found so far with NaP3 is I can hear the refresh in the audio out; this was not the case with the other software. Bottom line: NaP3 seems to fit the KX3 better than other software.

73,
Barry
