KA1J asked if he could use his K3 and his computer sound card to run CW SKimmer, and you're telling him how he can spend between $500 (SDR-IQ) and $1000 (QS1-R) for a solution that doesn't even actually use the K3. That's like me asking if I can add a tailgate lift to my pickup and you telling me to buy a forklift.

Another option is to use something like an active rx antenna on the
SDRIQ with a relay to disconnect during transmit.  I did this with the
QS1R for awhile and it was a good combination.

Yup.....Works fine too.

Your just sharing the RX antenna now not actually using the K3's IF.

I must be crazy but I had an SDR-IQ connected to the RX OUT and used
the rig control in the software connected to a VCP with LP Bridge and
it worked fine.

Unfortunately no, it only decodes +/- 12kHz. In the setup you use
SDR-IF
not
SDR-IQ so you can control the radio. The software is
limited to +/- 12. The author cannot/will not expand that.

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