[Elecraft] KX3 NAP3 & Win4K Off Frequency

[Barry LaZar]

I think the developer gave up in disgust due to the number of people who 
were hitting him with different issues. And, I don't think he was not 
getting paid for the level of effort that was required to keep going.

The situation is not good. The product is quite good and is a very 
helpful application to have. It works wonders while operating split with 
the one receiver I have with the KX3. However, I have heard nothing 
about someone wanting to replace the developer or even supporting its 
present state.

73,
