Re: [Elecraft] looking for iPad software

Two good packages are Hamlog and RUMlog. Both work with the iPad and KX3 if you have a piglet/pigail serial to wifi bridge. Both can be used with out rig control. RUMLog also can interchange files with the Mac version of the program via DropBox to make things easy. I like the UI better on RUMLog

I think what he is trying to do is use iSDR on the iPad to hear the signals he is touching. The I/Q goes to the line in and the headphones go to the out on the iMic. What he needs to do is set the iMic to mic not line to make the signal the iPad sees stronger and adjust iSDR gain settings in

Apple makes a lighting version of the camera connector kit. I am using that. It plugs right in and gives you a short cable to connect the iMic to. It should be nicer then using the 30pin adapter plus a camera kit. It is also cheeper to not buy the adapter. If you already own the 30pin camera
