I have the digital recorder option on my K3. But, when I use my KX2 (or, the KX3 I used to own) they are usually in the field sometimes using a picnic bench if nearby or otherwise the tailgate of my pickup truck with the portable antenna somewhere not far away. Can’t imagine in that scenario ever doing anything with a sound card especially when all I do is CW. Certainly I never have a computer with me. Well, I will often have my iPad but if that is with me I am reading a novel inbetween QSOs.
After all, I sort of that that was the design goal of something like the KX2 and even the KX3, minimal, small form-factor, portable operations or even hiking with it (which is something I do not usually do). 73, phil, K7PEH > On Mar 30, 2017, at 11:20 AM, Steve Sergeant <steve...@effable.com> wrote: > > I hope we can be more creative than that! > > How about recording, playback, and automation features, some of which > have not yet been imagined.
