[Elecraft] comparisons of K3 control software

[Chester Alderman]

Hi Ken,

Well I didn't ask my question properly, so I got back info about how well it
decoded CW! Anyway I got a nice response from Tom, the author, responded to
him but got no response from him again yet.

I also have no interest in a CW decoder as I used to operate QRQ over 60
wpm, thus have no need for a decoder. And like you, I also have no interest
in controlling my K3 with a mouse. Tom seems to have a nice program
otherwise.

73,
Tom - W4BQF

Chester, I have wondered the same thing.   I see some functions that an 
on screen button can speed up, such as changing power levels. but most of
the time I prefer using the rig rather than the mouse. That's one reason I
prefer operating the K3 vs. the FlexRadio.  The main thing I want a computer
involved for is logging, digital modes, and multi unit synchoronization
(such as the KAT500 with either the K3 or the Flex 
6300.)   But for routine operating, changing frequency or channels, 
changing CW speed, etc. I much prefer the rig vs the computer.
