Fellow Elecraft enthusiasts,
I just ordered the SoftRock Lite from Tony, KB9YIG, below. I would like to be able to observe whatever bandwidth I can around any band I am working on my K-3. Since this appears to be a compromise over the "Pan Adapter" that is available for ~$300, per Tony's suggestion I wonder if any of you have successfully tried this? And how does it work? FYI, I have an HP Pavilion dv9700 Notebook PC, AMD Turion X2 Mobile Technology TL-60 2.00 GHz, 2.00 GB Memory, 32 Bit Op System, with Vista. Not sure which sound card is built in. Driver is Conexant High Definition Smart Audio 221, if that helps. 73, RonAE6RH Hi Ron, The IF output of the K3 may be connected to a "K3 IF" version of the SoftRock Lite to get a view of signals in the IF passband. The K3 IF Lite II kit is $12 and the unit has a center frequency of about 8.190 MHz. With 48 kHz soundcard sample rate the IF band coverage would be +/-24 kHz around the Lite II center frequency. It might be well to ask on the Elecraft reflector if any have had success using the SoftRock Lite with the K3. I have sold many such kits but can't say I have ever gotten a report on how it has worked out for people. Thanks for your interest in the kits. 73, Tony KB9YIG
