You don't "NEED" Spectrogram, but it does help quite a bit.

The last shareware version of Spectrogram (v5.1.7) is available
at www.n0ss.net. You can find it on both the K2- and K1-specific
pages of this site, along with K2- and K1-specific PDF documcents
for ease of using it.

I'm sure you could use it as well. But you'll have to get info
from someone else. I've never had an opportunity to use a real
spectrum analyzer in that use.
