software

Hello all,

I am curious.

I am fairly new to the KX3. I have used several software packages in the
past with my base stations including MacLogger and HRD. What do people
use with the KX-3 and why?

Mark

Re: software

Hi Mark,

I have used MLDX with my KX3 in the past and it worked very well. I also have a K3/P3/KAT500/KPA500 that I use MLDX with.

However, I got spoiled by that dang P3 and wanted something like it for the KX3! This was before Elecraft announced the PX3. So, I downloaded and installed a copy of NaP3 (free). It runs on my 27” iMac under Win 8.1, which runs under VMWare Fusion - very nicely, I may add. Needed some sort of logging over on the Windows side, so I downloaded and installed Log4OM (also free). I like having the large Pan Display of NaP3 on the KX3; I log my KX3 QSO’s into Log4OM and when I’m done, export them in ADIF up to Dropbox and then import them into MLDX over on the mac side of things. A little extra work, but it does work.

Mark,
I use Win4k3 with HRD and CW Skimmer. This collection integrate very smoothly and allows me a fair amount of flexibility. I can do RTTY, CW, or PSK using the radio's inherent capability using the terminal window of Win4k3. For contesting, I swap out HRD for N1MM contest S/W.

Mark, I’m just a few months into the wonderful KX3 + PX3 + KAT500 (brag) — love all things Elecraft. MacLoggerDX works very well. FLDigi also is well matched. Bit of a learning curve on FLDigi, but excellent signal reports and substantial contacts. Happy to assist if you need.

Mark,

A lot depends on what your operating interests are.

For example, if you are a DX'er I would recommend RUMLog. Especially with
a K3/KX3.

It does a superior job of tracking DX, spotting summary and LoTW handling.

And, the price is right!

73,

Except you need a Mac, right?
