Jim,
On the panoramic display question, I recall last year at Dayton the KX3
I/Q outputs were driving an iMic to an iPad. I believe the software
came from Pignology, but I did not pay that much attention to the
details, so you may have to do some searching.
So the answer is, yes, a panadapter display from the KX3 is possible,
but unfortunately I do not have details.
NaP3 can also give a panadapter display, but I have not yet tried it.
Most any panadapter application that will accept I/Q output could be
used in theory - the other side of the coin is 'does that application
directly support the KX3'. That would be in regard to the rig control
and display of center frequency type questions. Most any panadapter
application can display the spectrum around the VFO center frequency,
but may not display the exact frequency the KX3 is tuned to if no other
communications with the radio are present to determine the center
frequency, the VFO A and VFO B settings, etc.

Operating the KX3 is lots of fun, barefoot or QRO. But, I miss the panoramic
band display I see when I use the K3/P3. What is out there that I might be able
to use with the KX3 and it's RX IQ? I'm using an iMac with OS X 10.7.5 for my
operating system. I do have VMWare Fusion, but would rather not have to run a
Windows application on the emulator - native mode applications are my desire.
Is there software that can use the RX IQ, possibly into a USB port, that will
give me the band display that I'm used to with the P3? Spending a bazillion
dollars on it is out of the question, so I'm hoping that there is an
inexpensive solution.
