I thought a K3 could be interfaced with a computer (using 3rd-party
software) so the user didn't have to touch the menu buttons on the K3. I
forget the details or what the name of the software is, but I'm told that's
far easier than fiddling with those menus directly on the radio.

What I heard was bad, was the receive audio on SSB, what's coming out of
the speaker connected to it. Are we on the same page?

When I get another rig, it will likely be a K3 for those and other reasons.
But SDRs are getting better and better all the time.
