[Elecraft] SDR software for KX3?

[Tom]

Hi
Well I just bought a new outboard sound card and removed all previous cards. I'm now running an emu2020 and I can adjust the levels between the channels. I can minimize the images but as soon as you move up or down a while the images are back. I also have lots of spurious peaks making it impossible to distinguish between cw and spurs. There is no adjustment in software for the inputs but I can adjust the levels on the outside. The images look nowhere like what you see on YouTube.
Getting pretty frustrated here
Tom

Guys,
     The one that really works well is NaP3. It was originally set up 
for the K3, but the latest iteration does a great job on the KX3. I've 
been running with the software for about a year or so, and I now don't 
know how function without it.
