Well one running the operating system that you use with your software at
home is a good place to start.  Bought my daughter a MS Surface last year
and share likes it a lot after a year of use at school.

This could be a long shot for you but I was shopping my local thrift store,
where I've picked up a couple of very nice computers for good prices, when I
happened upon a Motion tablet.  For its screen size (10") it's a little large
and heavy but it's very rugged.  Not a backpacking deal, but for portable it
would be fine.  The best thing about it is that it has an Intel i5 processor, a
real USB port and runs Windows.  Mine was originally Win 7 according to the
sticker, but the thrift store seems to put Win 10 on everything they sell.

I haven't tried it on the K3s but it runs my spare SDR-IQ with SpectraVue just
fine.  My main purpose was to make a "field" DG8SAQ vector network analyzer for
antenna work.  Since the software uses right clicking for some functions I have
to resort to a stylus that has this function.  Otherwise, it's FB.

It also has GPS, WiFi and Bluetooth.

Or you could get a radio with a built-in tablet :-)
