Wizkers:Radio KX3/KXPA100/PX3 utility and rig controller

Edouard Lafargue
   Just a heads up, I have just released a new rig controller that
primarily works with the Elecraft KX line KX3, KXPA100 and PX3. If you were
already familiar with Wizkers, this is a Ham-focused version with and
extended KXPA100 monitor.

Wizkers:Radio is a universal Chrome packaged app which runs on pretty much
any computer as long as you can install Chrome on it. An Android version is
also coming up.

Wizkers:Radio supports a lot of unique capabilities such as a graph of most
radio and amplifier parameters, PX3 screenshots, a quick "memory card"
system for each KX3 band as well as support for the PKX3 PSK-D and FSK-D
modes.

And one last thing: Wizkers:Radio is fully open source, head over to
wizkers.io to learn more about the underlying framework!

Download/install link including screenshots:

Comments and suggestions are most welcome!

Awesome! I've been puzzled by the lack of ham radio Chrome apps, and was
toying with the idea of writing something simple, like a clone of DroidPSK.
Wizkers is vastly better than anything I could have written.

Seems like Wizkers would also provide a framework for an cross-platform USB
antenna analyzer; basically this hardware with a Wizkers plugin:

I'd love to replace my RigExpert with a USB dongle that works on Chromebook
or phone. I look forward playing with Wizkers. Thank you for writing it and
open-sourcing it.
