[Elecraft] K3 Linux rig control

2015-06-03 Thread Bill
I am looking for Linux software to control the K3. Currently I use an old version of HRD - which basically does what I want. HRD is a no go under Wine. I am totally uninterested in logging apps and similar - only desire rig control. At this point I am running Linux Mint 17 on one machine and

It would make a lot more sense to run fldigi directly under ubuntu rather adding in the complex layer of wine. flrig is a very simple rig control program - but it does work very well running on ubuntu variants and most other distros. 73, Doug -- K0DXV On 6/3/15 7:46 AM, Matt Zilmer wrote:
