[Elecraft] K3S - Win4K3Suite - SDRPlay

[Gwen Patton]

I have Win10 on my workbench PC. I'm reasonably familiar with it. I've used
Linux for years, but it doesn't have the applications that I need, so I
can't rely on it. There are attempts at replacing those apps, but they're
not ready for prime time. I *have* them, but I prefer the Windows
originals. I have digital electronics diagnostic tools that simply *refuse*
to work with Linux USB drivers. I've tried. Repeatedly. Until I nearly
pulled all my hair out. Then I went to the expense and bought that
aforementioned Win10 workbench PC...and a 4-channel Rigol oscilloscope. USB
scopes are neat, but they don't replace a standalone scope, and my old CRO
was NOT adequate to need.

I suppose I'll have to at least upgrade my main PC to Win10 sometime. When
I get some minutes in a row, I'll look into it.

73,
Gwen, NG3P
