[Elecraft] Bluetooth adapter for K3 Audio

[W0MU Mike Fatchett]

I got mine from Costco too.  It does have the jack on the bottom of the 
remote for cable.  I was would like to be untethered so to speak.

I see Belkin and others make something that would probably work.

I figured I can't be the first guy to try this.
