I'm a very old fashioned guy; HF radios and computers don't combine, I just can't stand any selfmade-QRM.
That's also one of my reasons for choosing the K3. The internal data/cw decoder works very well!
It would be nice not only to decode without needing a computer but also to TX without having to bring a laptop or desktop.
How about a small Palmtop application that can just generate PSK31 / RTTY / CW but leaves the decoding to the K3? This would make K3 a true field-data TRX without the need for a computer.
There are a zillion of old cheap palmtops out there for which only the generation of PSK/RTTY/CW code shouldn't be too data-heavy. An RS232 to K3 cable and we're doing portable PSK31/RTTY.
Any Palm OS developper out there sees a challange in this? ;-)
My guess is that even something like an old Palm M100 could easily generate PSK31/RTTY/CW....
