[Elecraft] W4SMT K3 S-Meter

[KQ8M]

I'm sorry. I googled this but only get messages in forums with only one link which only goes to an eye glasses company. Could
someone pass along a URL for the download?

OK, I tried this.  Fairly cool!  Doesn't work in contests when N1MM owns the CAT, but all the other times, it just does work.  I'm
pretty much CW, I pretty much run the CWT, so I see nothing on the S-meter above S9. 
  Now, I've been in this hobby for 60 years, I know none of this really matters, but seeing an S-Meter that looks vaguely like the
one on my
SX-28 as a teenager is sort of cool.

Still trying to figure out what the dB/uv scale under the S-scale means. 
  I calibrated my K3 S-meter to S9 = -73dBm using my service monitor which hasn't been calibrated in at least 2 decades.  Hey, this
is "amateur" radio, just having fun here.  P3 tracks with the K3 S-meter which is reassuring.

If W4SMT is listening, would be great to be able to fool with the averaging, like the P3.  On the other hand, I couldn't do that on
my SX-28, so nothing lost there.

Google "W4SMT S-meter", you'll get a lot of posts [probably including this one], but the app is in there somewhere.
