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.
