I sure think so, and have been dreaming of such a thing for
years! Jim

Something like that would be great for programming a trunk
tracking scanner.

Hi Lou, too bad the Hampod won't work on numerous devices besides
even ham rigs. Yah I know, that's asking too much, but one can
always dream! Thanks, Jim WA6EKS

Jim,
The Hampod has a doubletalk synth so everything it says is in
that voice.
It does give excellent access to the K3 display and to the menus
and I can
attest that everything Armand says about Rob and his service are
absolutely
true.
In the interest of accuracy, though, I should point out that
there is one
thing we can't do with the hampod yet and that is setting audio
input
levels. This is not a hampod issue but rather a K3 issue. That
info just
isn't available to the serial port yet. I know Rob has been in
contact with
Elecraft about it and hopefully it will be fixed soon. There is
no doubt
though that the K3 performance and the hampod access makes an
extremely
powerful package.

Hi Armand, man that Elecraft sounds terrific! The the hampod
give
you voice or CW output? I thought it was CW only, but you make
it
sound like the things speaks everything including when your
dinner's ready and when you should do your laundry etc. Heck,
I
graduated from a Drake Tr-4c to a Kenwood Ts-480 with speech so
I
think that's the cat's meow. Guess you'll have to bring the
Elecraft to an a's game where we can meet up so I can check it
out. Smile! y73, Jim WA6EKS
