[Elecraft] SDR Processing from IF Output

[Wes Stewart]

I'm not doing any particular analysis, or using it as a second RX, but I have a 
couple of SDR-IQs, (one on each K3) that I use as panadapters.

I just picked up a 10" Motion tablet computer at a thrift store and I'm playing 
with one of the SDR-IQs (as a standalone so far) and tuning it via SpectraVue 
and the touch screen.  I haven't quite mastered it yet but it holds promise for 
tuning the K3 via touch.  (Maybe I won't need a second rotator cuff surgery 
after all)

I have got the setup working using some cheap RTL-SDR’s which are not designed for HF bands (but with slightly different firmware can be make to sort of work - down to 20 Mhz they are bearable).
