[Elecraft] K3: DRM

Probably not because of the codec licensing issues and also because the DRM
standard was not the US system, there is also - IBOC which is more common in
the USA. There are two rival systems out there and that is never much good
for adoption.

The K3 is not intended to be a broadcast receiver. It happens to be a very
good broadcast receiver but that is incidental. An interesting prospect
would be to provide an IQ interface (both TX and RX) and leave the encoding
and decoding to a PC or an add on unit. People could do whatever modulation
they like with that.  I don't know if that would be possible to implement on
the K3. Perhaps that is the K4.

To decode DRM I use the SDR-IQ and DREAM. It works like one. The audio
quality is astonishing for the bandwidth.
