I use a Pigknob with great success. You can easily program it for any
command(s). Unfortunately, it is limited to only 8 buttons. It does also
do the VFO.
I too am limited in motion and like to run the rig from something that
is right on the edge of the desk.
I have been chasing a mouse with an older (free) version of HRD for
several years. Not perfect, but pretty good. I was hoping the new HRD
versions would add features and correct some problems. Sadly, not so -
so I stay with what I have. I am only interested in rig control - not
all the other stuff that HRD does.
There are some other programs out there, but be careful. I have
experienced complete loss of my presets using them (my menu selections).
The reason I would like to go direct to the K3 is to avoid the extra
expense of the P3 board. The keypad is available with a serial cable.
