[Elecraft] KX3 and NaP3

[Barry LaZar]

Now that Field Day is over, I've had a chance to play with my KX3. I 
have NaP3 running with my KX3 and using an E-MU 0202 sound card with my 
laptop. It's a real WOW! I have a panadapter, effectively, and I can 
play with the PowerSDR filters that are a part of NaP3. NaP3 follows my 
tuning of the KX3 or I can click on a signal and have the KX3 move to 
it. It is a really useful adjunct to the overall capability. The only 
thing I've had a problem with is the IF offsets. They are different for 
each mode, and not by a little. Unfortunately, NaP3 doesn't remember the 
offsets by mode. However, I still like the match up and suggest KX3 
owners have a go at trying this. The offset issue can be addressed by 
noting them and putting them in manually, at least for the time being. 
Having the receiver I/Q available seems to have proved a seriously good 
idea.
