Actually I gave some thought to this project this morning,
specifically allowing many programs simultaneous and transparent
access to a K3 where the programs talk K3 CAT.
My conclusion is that it's easy, the hard part having been written
already by Phil N8VB, specifically his virtual serial cables. I have
all the code I need for this, once running programs such as DXLab,
the CW Skimmer program etc. would just connect to a virtual serial
port such as COM22. I see no show-stoppers, performance would be /
could be excellent.
A few weeks ago I needed to have one serial output feed several
serial inputs and assumed that N8VB's VCOM could be set up as a
virtual Y" cable to allow this, but was not able to get it to work -
it would allow only one output per input. If there is a way, I would
like to know how - I still need this functionality.
