I have been using the SDRPlay to drive Win4k3. It works with little
problem. That problem is setting the global offset so that it matches
exactly your K3s. Not all SDR software will play nicely being driven by
the SDRPlay. And, BTW; If you are going to use narrows roofing filters,
you are going to need to account for the fact that each has a slightly
different calibration frequency. It's no big deal, but it should be set
for your specific radio.
