If you want to run something "natively" on the Mac, I would suggest quisk: http://james.ahlstrom.name/quisk/
I haven't tried it yet myself, but it appears to allow some level of integration with the KX3 by means of hamlib. In order to build it and get it working, you'll need to install some additional libraries -- I'd suggest to use MacPorts for this: https://www.macports.org If you are not comfortable building software on your Mac, then the only other "native" option I know of is the DL2SDR program: http://dl2sdr.homepage.t-online.de/ 73, Matt VK2RQ On 11 Feb 2014, at 10:05 am, Don Wilhelm <w3...@embarqmail.com> wrote: > Jim, > > On the panoramic display question, I recall last year at Dayton the KX3 I/Q > outputs were driving an iMic to an iPad.
