Since Power SDR has a Kenwood CAT interface, I would bet it would relatively easy to couple PowerSDR with a SoftRock40, a relatively inexpensive soundcard and a few lines of custom software to both provide a "bandscope" and fully control the K3. If one is into the GUI interface, such a configuration would provide a real receiver with proper filtering close to the antenna and still have all the point and click control one might want. 73, ...
