I did a video with my K3 and the panadapter solution that I use. See:

I have and LP-PAN2 and could never get it to work reliably with both
U5 and U7
outboard sound cards on my system. Others have had great success with
it, but I
haven't. Birdies and other junk in the spectrum. It would kinda-sorta
work but
that's not good enough. I've held out for now until I can find a better
panadapter solution. I have a P3 and it's OK--it's gotten me through
more than a
few DXpedition pileups looking for replying station--but I'm after a
better way
to accomplish this.
The ideal solution would be if Elecraft ever released a module with
I/Q out, and
I'm curious why they haven't done so, in fact. I would much rather
have my K3s
than any Flex, but with that said, the features provided by SDR are
undeniably
powerful. I might grab and SDRPlay and give it a try when it comes time to
reconfigure my station.

Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Survey and summary: Elecraft K3/K3S panadapter
solutions
Most of the sound cards that support 192 KHz sampling (~200KHz display
with NaP3) have either lost driver support for Windows 10 or have
reported hardware reliability issues. That is a primary reason so
many have abandoned LP-Pan/SoftRock with sound card style systems in
favor of the RTL dongles, AirSpy and/or SDRplay based systems.
It is a shame that NaP3 support is so lacking for the majority of
the better hardware these days.

It's also fine with a reliable sound card!

The issue is that NaP3 does not support Airspy, SDRplay or RTS dongle
based SDRs. It's fine if one has LP-Pan with an unreliable sound card
or Fun Cube Dongle but otherwise it's rather crippled and not readily
supported.

Hi,
None of you buddies have heard of LP-PAN and NaP3? No RF splitter
needed and
NaP3 takes care of all the frequency offsets caused by the bandpass
shifting
on the K3(S). The latest versions of NaP3 even have cluster spots
displayed.
