[Elecraft] K3 & Piglet

[wb4jfi at knology.net]

Hello Cary,
If I understand your question, you are trying to physically connect the 
Piglet to the iPad.  That's not the way it works.

The Piglet connects to your K3 via the RS232 connector, that way it can 
control the K3 via the standard K3 control interface.

The Piglet connects to the iPad via wifi.  There are a couple of different 
ways to do that.  You can either connect both the iPad and the Piglet to 
your wifi router (called infrastructure mode if I remember), or you can 
connect the iPad directly to the Piglet, also via wifi.

There are complete details on how to set either of these up on the pignology 
web site.

This works very nicely.
73, Happy New Year, and good luck!
Terry, WB4JFI

Santa brought me an iPadAir for Xmas and I'd like to sync it w/ a Piglet 
(Pignology product) for CW and digital modes as shown in Sept. 2013 CQ 
article and to use w/ HamLog.
The Piglet has an RS-232 male connector and my IPad has a lightening 
connector at the iPad w/ a USB connector at the other end. Surely there must 
be an adapter plug to connect these two varieties (USB/RS-232) but my 
on-line search hasn't found one.

Has anyone on the reflector successfully put together a similar setup and 
could point me in the right direction?

73 & Happy New Year,
Cary, K4TM
