Add a 3rd to your list. Ultimatic is the only way I can use dual lever

Phil,
I do not recall those transceivers having an IF Output.
If the KWM2 or 75S-1 is modified to provide an IF output, then the
answer is yes the P3 will provide a panadapter function centered around
the IF. The P3 will not display the operating frequency because that
information is not

I don't think so either, but I'm thinking it should be easy to tap off
the 455 khz signal path and bring it out to a BNC or RCA connector.

Alan,
It's easy to activate the voice memories simply by sending a macro to tap
the appropriate button. It's a bit more complicated to measure the length
of the message, if you want to set up an auto-repeat function, but that can
also be done. I do that in my program, CQPWIN, and also
The problem is that I use a specific program for the 10-10 contest (Win1010)
which does not support this function. This program has a database of 10-10
numbers and associated info as well as scores the contest. Therefore, I need
another way to access the K3 DVR.

Ultimatic is a lifesaver!
When I moved from my W9TO keyer with a single paddle to a modern keyer with
dual paddles I could hardly send CW. What a shock that was!
Then, I discovered ultimatic mode and life was good again.. ;-)

Most laptops don't have a stereo input, only mono mic input, so they are
worthless for SDR. I haven't tested any pc card type sound cards that

can accept the center spike in the display. I have had very good results

Although older and some lowest cost laptops may not have stereo input, I

stereo mike inputs as part of their speakerphone capability.

My number 9 button takes a firm push to get the number 9. A tap for

Again, do a simple test to see if your laptop has a stereo line in before
spending money. It really isn't that hard to do.
Don't make assumptions.

An LP-Pan or SoftRock will NOT be required to make use of the I/Q output of
the KX3. It is designed to drive a stereo soundcard input directly.

For basic field use with the KX3, there is an SDR app for iPhone / iPad
/ iPod Touch called iSDR which might be worth looking at. For stereo
One trick people used to use was to wrap a wire around the mixer tube.
That picks up enough signal for the panadapter without having to tap
into the circuitry , which would likely require an IF re-alignment.

Lance,
It would be wise IMHO, for those using CW in SSB (or any other VHF/UHF
gear) and also having a sequencer, to use the TX INH input on the ACC
jack to inhibit transmit rather than asserting PTT at the end of the
sequence.
Yes, the K3 works a little differently than many other

For sale KRC2.
Worked well with my K3.
I sold my K3 and the KRC2 does not work with my Kenwood TS-590.
This is a sale as is as I have no way if testing the unit.
It was working with my K3 a year ago but your experience might differ.
What I mean is that for questions how to make it work
It`s the same with my K3 (unit no:413)
