To use the P3’s I/Q signals with software applications, you have to format the data like a USB sound card, a standard that is widely used and requires no special drivers. A significant amount of firmware is required at the P3 end, but we’re definitely looking at this. In answer to an earlier qu

I never understood why the P3 didn't have I/Q outputs in the first place, and I remember pleading for them well before the P3 was finalized.  It never made sense to me to have to have to add additional hardware to make use of other software that used I/Q outputs when the P3 clearly generated

The ability to manipulate the signals via software is a plus, and if it is done in software, one could also integrate the software via Win4K3 / com0com for CAT integration  multiple ways to skin the "cat".  73, __ Clay Autery, KY5G (318) 518-1389 On 28-Jul-18 10:01, D

Dave, My opinion is that there is no need for the SDRPlay, and you can have better integration with the K3/P3. 73, Don W3FPR On 7/28/2018 10:11 AM, Dave Fugleberg wrote: Aha, NOW the proposed add on module makes sense to me... assuming one already has a P3 (as I do), adding this will make th

Aha, NOW the proposed add on module makes sense to me... assuming one already has a P3 (as I do), adding this will make the P3 appear as a USB device to SDR software on a PC (much like a SDRPlay or RTL SDR dongle. Correct? What will be the advantages of this versus connecting a SDRPlay, etc to the

Nice explanation, Don. However, when we do an I/Q add-on for the P3, it will be fully digital (like a USB sound card), not analog (like the KX3’s RX I/Q outputs). These digital signals already exist in the P3; we just need to repackage them for use with a computer. Wayne N6KR Don Wilhelm w
