[Elecraft] Macintosh version of Elecraft KX3 Utility

[Andy McMullin]

Wes,

I wonder if a better answer would be to push for versions of the utilities that compile on an ARM chip so that it could be run on a Raspberry Pi. Particularly as it’s already been compiled for an X86 under Linux, so all the libraries should be there. I don’t think many of us would worry about spending 25 quid on a little computer to have just to run the utilities and maybe some of the modern digital modes?

Regards
Andy, G8TQH

To run my N2PK VNA, I have a laptop with a parallel port running WinXP and I think there is still a 386 laptop out in the garage somewhere with Win95, just in case :-)  Of course the latter two have no WiFi cards in them to avoid troubles.
