[Elecraft] K3 - rig control using Linux

[Al Gulseth]

Take a look at Grig. It might require a backport or something because I don't 
see it in the Mint packages list (but search for it in Synaptic first.) It is 
in the regular Debian repository.

I know there's a person on this list who is or was one of the maintainers for 
Hamlib (the back end for Grig.) Are you "reading the mail" Nate?
