[LOGic] K3 Support - TRXManager

[Greg]

The bottom line for me is I really really like Logic.  I used it for a very
long time (3.1) and have always updated when possible.  But for some
unknown reason it does not support the K3.  There are things that just do
not work right when using a K3 with any of the "close to compatible"
options.  If Logic supported the K3 I would probably continue to upgrade
but until it does that just will not happen.  I cannot think of any other
logging programs out there that do not support the K3.  I worked with
Dennis when the radio first came out and he tried a few things and then
just gave up unfortunately.  I only continue to subscribe here hoping that
I will one day be surprised and find that he has had a change of heart.
Dennis has always been very fine with support questions I have had in the
past before this ever came up.
