[Elecraft] [Elecraft_K3] New Elecraft Product: K-Pod Control Panel for K3S and K3 Transceivers

[Wayne Burdick]

The two are quite different, Fred. Yours has the edge on price.... Other major differences: The K-Pod connects to the K3/K3S at the RJ jack beneath the front panel, so it doesn't tie up the rig's RS232 or USB ports. It can optionally be powered through this cable. The optical/ball-bearing encoder is 400 counts and uses the same weighted, soft-touch knob as the K3S. A rocker switch selects VFO A/B/OFFSET control. Function switches F1-F8 directly trigger up to 16 macros in the radio. There's a USB port, 4 programmable LEDs, and 3 general-purpose open-drain outputs.
