+1 on the K-Pod programmer's manual.  Good call, Ron.

I assume Ron is looking for a definition of the interface / protocol between
the K-Pod and K3 / K3s.

I believe the K3 / K3s "J3" connector leveraged by the K-Pod was originally
intended to serve as a MPLAB ICD 2 (In-Circuit Debugger),

With respect to future software and interfaces ...

The owner's manual states, "Future firmware for the K-Pod that can be
downloaded from www.elecraft.com will allow you to control your personal
computer from the K-Pod through the USB interface. Your computer will
recognize the K-Pod as a human interface device such as a keyboard or
mouse."

The HID protocol is well-defined.

For now, let's see if we can get Elecraft to share the interface / protocol
between the K-Pod and K3 / K3s.
