[Elecraft] K3 and SDR-IQ and CW Skimmer

I don't use skimmer so can't begin to comment on that.  But I do use an SDR-IQ 
with SpectraVue on my K3 and/or K3S i-f output(s).  The SDR-IQ follows the K3s 
perfectly and conversely, you can point-and-click the screen in SpectraVue and 
tune the K3.  You can also tune the K3 with the mouse wheel.

Since my K3 needs to talk to my logging programs too, I use LP-Bridge to 
facilitate that. I've recently become interested in 160 DXing and the waterfall 
display is invaluable in showing signals that I would probably miss when 
manually tuning the band.

If you want more setup info contact me off list.  Elecraft wants to sell P3s.
