All I'm talking about is a simply virtual display applet - a few square inches of area on the PC monitor to show operating parameters without having to push a bunch of buttons (like in the middle of a contest). HRD is a huge application and as far as I can tell it won't run off LP_Bridge, won't show subrx parameters or MIC/CMP (I could be wrong). K3_EZ never ran off LP_Bridge unless something changed.
During a contest, I like to look down and confidently know my mic gain/compression and tx power along with my rx width and shift. I also like to know my subrx settings without resorting to BSET. It seems like this simple augmented display would have wide appeal - might also sell more K3's since other than the Orion, none of the competing rigs have a full display offering either. 73, Barry N1EU On Sat, Oct 30, 2010 at 10:40 PM, Dick Dievendorff <die...@comcast.net> wrote: > I think Ham Radio Deluxe does this, > > http://www.ham-radio-deluxe.com/ > > and there's an application called K3_EZ that may also be of interest to you. > > http://home.roadrunner.com/~n2bc/SW.htm > > There may be others, but these are the ones I'm aware of. > > 73 de Dick, K6KR > > > -----Original Message----- > From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net > [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Barry N1EU > Sent: Saturday, October 30, 2010 3:29 PM > To: elecraft > Subject: [Elecraft] K3 software utility ? > > I suspect that I'm not alone in continuously butting up against the > K3's limited display area and not being able to see some of the > settings.
