Dave and all, The answer to your assumptions depends on *your* definition of I and Q signals, and also your ability to separate analog I/Q concepts and digital I/Q concepts. I believe the K3/K3S, KX3 and KX2 already qualify as SDR transceivers - but they do the DSP signal processing inside

As I understand it, the KX3, and the P3, both contain a software defined receiver, so the I/Q signals are already present. That is not the case for the receiver in the K3 or K3S, so adding it there would involve adding a SDR. On Fri, Jul 27, 2018 at 2:21 PM Dick Dickinson wrote: > Ever the
