Hi Art!

I asked Wayne this exact question. He said that the P3 will have two RS232 connectors -- 
one for the radio and one for the computer. The rig control and information commands to 
the logging program will pass through untouched; the P3 will have its own special command 
set which it will use to talk to the K3.

He said the goal is to enable it to work transparently with all loggers, rig control 
software, etc.
