iSDR for K3

[Doug Ellmore Sr.]

Don,

You need to convert the K3 IF I/Q output into an audio source for any SDR
app.

The way I converted the IF I/Q out (*KXV3A) *of the K3 to audio is via the
use of an LP PAN 2: http://www.telepostinc.com/LP-PAN.html . That feeds
into a Steinberg UR-22 2 In/2 Out Audio USB Interface.  The USB cable from
the Steinberg goes to the Windows 8 laptop.  I start up Ham Radio Deluxe
(HRD).  I then start NaP3 which connects not the the K3 directly via the
com port, but to Ham Radio Deluxe.  HRD virtualizes the radio comms and
controls.  Then when I click on the NaP3 spectrum screen, it changes HRD.
When I click on a DX spot from HRD, it changes the NaP3 spectrum display.

I have 3 screen setup, one for my HRD Log and DX Spots (radio controls),
one for NaP3, and another for digital master (when doing digital modes).
Of course my wife thinks I am training to be an FAA flight controller now.

You could take the audio out of the LP PAN 2 into another audio input
device like an iPad or whatever that runs an SDR app.

73,
