[LOGic] K3 Driver

I agree Bill. Logic is a great program. I've been a customer since the
beginning. The K3 is the best radio I've ever owned. They just don't work
together. All of the other logging programs support the K3 (even the free
ones), so I know it's possible.

I may have to check out DX Labs or Ham Radio Deluxe.

It would be nice to have support for the MMTTY engine as in Writelog too.

worlds......... sure it would be nice to utilise all the Logic functions
