The Linux source for the KX2 utility could probably be compiled on a Raspberry Pi. I realize that the source code has not been (and probably won't be) released but presumably someone at Elecraft would have a RPi and be able to create an ARM binary that could be made available. Bob N7XY On

It looks like gemu might work to run the utilities on a Pi. My experience with running Windows on a PowerPC Macintosh was that if the program wasn't too CPU intensive, the experience was only a little lethargic. Running photoshop was like watching paint dry. It's certainly worth a try.

This (ExaGear desktop) might be worth a try/look for those interested in seeing if they can get the kx2util software to run on a Raspberry Pi. Wine as a Win32 emulator on it's own won't work with an ARM processor, but the ExaGear desktop claims to bridge the gap to allow x86 code to execute with

If raspbian supports wine, you might try it. You'd have to expose a COM or /dev/ttyUSBx port to the guest OS. This might be a hassle, but once you get it working you'd probably be a hero to a bunch of Rasp Pians(hm... sic?). 73, matt W6NIA On 4/7/2017 8:51 PM, murphy wrote: Has anyone

Has anyone successfully installed the kx2util software on raspbian for the raspberry pi 3? The RPi-3 is a wonderful host for wsjtx and fldigi. It controls the kx2 like a dream with only two short audio cables to a $5 usb sound card and the included usb cable. I can then control my kx2 via the
