Hi Dauer and the group I built my K2 in 2000 and used it until I donated it to a local high school in 2013. I used Spectrogram and Windows in the early years but changed to FLDIGI and used the FFT option for the spectrum display in the later years and still use it today with my K3s and KX3 if I want to check the filters. I understand FLDIGI works with the Apple operating system as well as Linux so you should be able to use it on whatever computer you have. I alined my K2 many times with it and felt it did just as well as Spectrogram. The reason I quit using Spectrogram is I always upgraded my operating system and there was a while that Spectrogram would not run on my computer.
I hope this information helps you. good luck and 73 Ken W0CZ w0cz at i29 dot net Sent from my iPad > On Nov 28, 2015, at 7:19 PM, Dauer, Edward <eda...@law.du.edu> wrote: > > Completed the K2 (with KAF2 and KNB2) just today.
