[Elecraft] Best Digital Program for the K3?

[Leigh L. Klotz Jr WA5ZNU]

Thank you, Rick.

You can configure fldigi to use RS232 commands for TX and RX control, 
and the K3 has built-in transformer isolation so you don't need an 
interface to run, just two shielded audio cables with 3.5mm plugs and an 
RS232 9-pin straight-through cable.  FSK D would also require the same 
RS232 cable.

I'm surprised cocoaModem hasn't got RS232 rig control yet; it's pretty 
simple to implement for the K3.  (You literally just send "TX;" and "RX;" )
