Yes ... but then it isn't operating in IF Mode. The difference is
explained in the CW Skimmer documentation.
Plus, an SDR-IQ costs in the vicinity of $500 so it isn't at all like
simply connecting the K3 to a soundcard.

If you use an sdr-iq with the K3 CWS will decode up to 190 kHz I believe.

CW Skimmer is indeed a pretty cool piece of software, but it
doesn't work like that. Unless you also have some sort of SDR
front end, all you'll be able to get with CW Skimmer is a display
of the audio passband. For a display of stations outside that
passband you need an additional piece of hardware that takes the
IF out from the K3 and processes it so that it can be handled by
your sound card and CW Skimmer. Even then, CW Skimmer has a
limitation in "IF mode" that restricts what you see to something
like +/- 12 KHz.
Even if you decide to go with something else, there's a lot of
good information on the LP-Pan website.

interesting. I'm wondering if anyone here is using it with
their K3
and if so, what did you find was the best way to connect it to the
K3?
I have both the internal Realtek soundcard built into the PC
motherboard and I have a E-MU USB soundcard which has XLR & 1/4"
inputs for left & right. There's optical & S/PDIF inputs as
well but
the K3 doesn't have those outputs.
Thanks,
