Re: [Elecraft] K-Pod hands-on test opportunity; request for K-Pod application ideas

Same way for either a K3 or K3S: Plug it into the RJ jack beneath the front 
panel.

Ok, so how do I connect a K-Pod to my K3 (pre-S)?

In theory you could use either the RJ12 data jack or the USB port for this with the right 
firmware and interfaces. That's what we were alluding to ("future 
applications"). Keep those ideas coming!

Perhaps a silly question, or just too early?

Will it be possible to repurpose this to use with other radios? It looks
like it is designed for the K3(S) but I could see it being useful for my
KX3, or possibly other home-brew radios? I suppose all that would be
required would be the protocol specification so that a DIY micro-controller

[Elecraft] K-Pod hands-on test opportunity; request for K-Pod application ideas

[Wayne Burdick]

If you're planning to go to the Visalia DX convention this weekend 
(dxconvention.org), please drop by our booth and give the K-Pod a test drive. 

We're very interested in hearing about your potential uses for the K-Pod, 
including proposed macros (command sequences). Some of these might make great 
examples for the owner's manual. In the future, we'll also support 
general-purpose USB functionality involving additional equipment types. All 
ideas and opinions welcome.
