[Elecraft] Slightly OT: Physical tuning knob for K3 through HRD?

[Julian, G4ILO]

You are correct, Don. I too missed that the K3 was being operated remotely.

As I said earlier, if it is possible to change frequency using the keyboard
with HRD then it should be possible to program the PowerMate driver to send
the same keystrokes to HRD, so KTune would not be necessary. The only
difference is that HRD would have to be in the foreground, whereas KTune
captures global hotkeys so it continues to work whatever application you are
currently using.
