[Elecraft] k3 sdr-ir pan adapter

[Edward R Cole]

Title is "sdr-ir pan adapter" but Doug states he has a SDR-IQ.  Is this a typo?

Since you have the SDR-IQ, I can address use of it with the K3 (as I 
have both radios).  Spectravue only controls the SDR-IQ to my 
knowledge.  You can use the SDR-IQ by itself and tune from 500-Hz to 
30-MHz, or you can connect it to the K3 IF output and tune the SDR-IQ 
to 8.215 MHz to use it with the K3 as a pan adapter.  You tune the K3 
via front control panel as normal.  The SDR-IQ can be changed in band 
span to cover as much spectrum as desired up to 190-KHz.  Several 
demodulation modes are available if you wish to listen to the SDR-IQ 
(via your computer soundcard).

I am not familiar with use of SDR-radio.com.

I normally tee the SDR-IQ with the K3 aux Rx input so I can use them 
as dual Rx.  I mostly use my SDR-IQ on the 600m band or looking at 
the 28-MHz IF from my VHF/UHF/mw transverters.  Recently, I have been 
making Sun Noise observations on 1296 MHz with my 16-foot dish using 
the SDR-IQ as a spectrum analyzer.

I also use two LP-Pan with my K3 (has the sub-Rx).
