[Elecraft] KX3 I/Q SDR questions

[Lyle Johnson]

Linux, Mac, PC - it all depends on the software developer community.  I 
would expect Linrad to work very well with the KX3, for example.  In the 
end, it is just a baseband I/Q output from the KX3.  Any 
soundcard+software combination that works with a softrock receiver, for 
example, should work with the KX3.

Whether or not the program that handles the I/Q stream also controls the 
radio is a different matter.  Some will, some won't, and some may... 
someday.
