Due to my specific circumstances, having a rig that can be fully
operated from an easily moveable control face late (control head) is a
great asset. I use my TS480 a lot, as it has a removable control head
that can be placed anywhere on my desk. I use a PigKnob on the K3, which
is a great addition for the purposes, as I have grown more and more fond
of operating the K-Line over the 480. Now I find I'd like to have
capabilities similar to the 480 for the K3.
Now the question: Can the K3/0 mini be used as a moveable control head
(ala TS-480) on the K3? If so, does it require a complicated computer
interface and equipment? Or, is there a means to connect it directly to
the K3 with a single line?
The attractiveness of the 480 is the simplicity. Unfortunately, to
duplicate the K-Line with a display is an ongoing project here. Auto
tuner and small amplifier for use with the 480 is duck soup simple.
Please remember this query is not about the 480, except for use as an
example of the mobility of the faceplate. Not being stupid, I know full
well which radio does what.
