[Elecraft] Skimmer and the K3S

[Wes Stewart]

My eyes glaze over at the thought of Skimmer, but I heartily agree with Don 
about LP-Bridge.  I use it with my K3s and run my logging program (DXBase), 
SpectraVue (runs SDR-IQ as bandscope), MMTTY, FLDIGI, N1MM, etc.  LP-Bridge will 
also start all of these programs automatically when executed.
