There are a number of technical as well as practical reasons why the IQ
output from the KX3 is buffered analog rather than USB.  Or Firewire, or
Thunderbolt, or Ethernet, or S/PDIF, or AES3 or one of the other myriad
digital standards...  Some of these reasons are likely to become more
apparent once the KX3 is shipping.

There was careful consideration of the implications and tradeoffs before
the decision to provide a buffered analog output.

Meanwhile, for those so inclined, the available analog IQ stream will
provide a simple means of applying PC-based SDR techniques to the KX3
receive path.
