[Elecraft] setting up Fldigi

[Joel Black]

...and I would like to add that downloading and installing Flrig will 
help quite a bit with controlling the radio. Flrig connects via XML to 
Fldigi and gives greater control than RigCAT or Hamlib. Flrig will give 
you CAT control of the K3 via serial port (or USB-to-serial).

On another note, depending on your OS, there are two Yahoo groups 
pertaining to Fldigi - Win-Fldigi (I think) pertains to Fldigi on 
Windows; Linuxham pertains to Fldigi on Linux and the Mac OS. Linuxham 
*also* deals with ham radio and Linux / Mac OS in general too.
