Win4K3Suite now supports the SDRPlay SDR as a panadapter allowing 1.8MHz bandwidth!

Hello,
Win4K3Suite now supports the SDRPlay software defined radio when used as a panadapter.  This device provides the lowest cost panadapter available for the K3 and K3S with an IF output and allows useable bandwidths up to 1.8MHz!  No sound card is required.
Unlike competing panadapter software for the K3, Win4K3Suite is truly plug and play requiring only refinement of the global offset.  All bands and modes work without any configuration required.
This release of Win4K3Suite also now supports connection to a K3/0 allowing remote control of your radio using the Elecraft K3/0 just like a K3.
There are addition enhancements such as a doubling of the waterfall resolution, support for the 15W output of the KX3 and a few bug fixes.
Win4K3Suite is the most comprehensive control program available for the Elecraft radios and interfaces to all third party hardware and software with minimum fuss.

Hi Tom,

Cute video, but I would like to see a connection diagram. The K3's IF output has to connect to some hardware, presumably with a USB connector at the other end? Is that the third party hardware alluded to? SDRs like that are all over the spectrum in price so the claim that this is the lowest cost panadapter solution is a little loose. Could I use my Afedri? I bought one a while ago and it was a fun toy for a while, but is now collecting dust. What do you mean by "requiring only refinement of the global offset"? Does it not do all the adjustments for modes and filter passband settings like the LP-Bridge/NaP3 combination does?
