Jack and Ron,

Sorry, but I was thinking about one thing and talking about another.  I
had also made some modifications to my K2 to allow me to drive a
PTC-IIusb pactor modem.  That modification is the one that was
originally done by a German ham.  So I was thinking about the pactor
modification when talking about the panadapter modification.  My only
excuse is that my aging mind is easily confused.

Jack, question:  Do you plan to offer an LP-Bridge program for the K2?

73,

Jim - W4BQP
