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

[john at kk9a.com]

I think that most contest station use a considerable amount of cables in
back of the rig. I have a Y on my ACC for a MicroHAM device and a Band
Decoder and am considering adding another Y for amp control. It think that
it is great if the K-Pod can be run off of a single cable connected
underneath the K3S. How involved is the radio modification? I can see this
as a convenient way to use RIT and activate the CW/SSB keyer memories.

Done. For most applications, a single USB cable to the radio (K3S, or a K3
with a KIO3B module) is all that's required for combined computer data and
audio.

We provide lots of other DC, audio, and digital I/O too, just in case you
need it. For example, we provide a second headphone jack, second mic jack,
and stereo speaker outputs on the back. Just in case.

No way to get rid of the DC input jack, antenna jack, and ground screw, of
course.

I suppose the keyer paddle could go to Bluetooth?
