I have two apps in the Apple App Store that allow you to remotely control your K3 using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch. These apps are free as I want to encourage those who are interested to try them out and provide me feedback on any bugs discovered and enhancements desired.
The apps use two different approaches to communicate with the K3 from your iDevice. K3iConnect establishes an ad hoc network with a wifi serial adapter that fits in the RS232 port on the K3. Thus, no PC/Mac or cables are required and the K3 can be remotely controlled from anywhere within 30+ feet of the radio. K3iNetwork uses your local WiFi network and PC/Mac to communicate with the K3. In this case you need to have your K3 tethered to your PC or Mac via an RS232 cable. The advantage here is that sound from the K3 line out can be streamed to the iDevice with a third party app such as Airfoil. Both apps will work with the P3. I have used these apps to carry on CW and data QSOs with other amateurs. I think they are an exciting addition to the Elecraft Mojo, but they also need the benefit of users ideas on how to make them better. Also, maybe other iDevice or Android developers will be inspired to develop their own apps to add even more capabilities. Enjoy!
