Re: [Elecraft] New shack PC...

I use Ubuntu 14, 64 bit - The Elecraft utilities work fine. USB Connections are also easy and stable Darwin - El Capitain - The Elecraft utilities work fine. USB Connections are also easy and stable No issues under linux at all as far as I can see.

Wayne, It's not been asked yet but what about using the K-Pod on the KX3? At first, that might sound crazy since the KX3 is already very small. But, the additional macro buttons plus the rocker switch for VFO selection would be nice features for a KX3. 73, Jim, KY2D -Original Message-
