hello richard, to answer your question about the k3 and computers,
the answer is absolutely. i don't have to be tied to a computer, so
i would never buy a radio that needed a computer to make it work. i
have been using a k3 for 2 and a half years, and i only hook it to
the computer when they have new updated firmware for it. i have a
stand-alone box that sits on top of the k3 that gives me speech
output for frequency read out and mike settings processor settings
power output so i don't over drive my amplifier and also whether i am
in split mode or not. makes my operating the radio very easy. take
care, c u mike w6quv
