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.
