[Elecraft] Panadaptor for the KX3

[Mark Petiford]

Rocky has been my "go to" application for my homebrew SDR uses for many years.  While it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of other applications, it has the best frequency domain display available, it is rock solid, and for homebrew use, it can control an si570 through the I2C bus with the addition of a couple of chips.  I use it with my KX3 to monitor the output of newly built SDR transmitters, as well as rebuilt boat anchor transmitters until I am sure they are working properly.  For the $0 price, I have not found an application that can give me as much information about the signal quality as Rocky.

I am not sure which article in QST you are talking about.  Be careful, it is the April issue, and QST editors are known for their spoofs!

Subject: [Elecraft] Panadaptor for the KX3

Has anyone tried using Rocky (VE3NEA, freeware) with the I/Q output from 
a KX3, for a $0 panadaptor?  I'm stimulated to ask this by the 
panadaptor article in the current QST, which strikes me as a ludicrous 
example of doing things the hard way.
