The author discusses ways to display VHF and higher bands using a K3/10 as transverter, NooElec Upconverter, SDR, and SDR-Console. He observed that the results were remarkable, with the tuned frequency visible at +/-100kHz. The K3 Interface Option (KXV3A) produces a buffered IF output at 8.213MHz, which is received using a NooElec NESDR SMArt SDR dongle and Ham It UP Upconverter. The SDR-Console program is utilized, with Omnirig synchronizing the SDR and K3. To configure the system, particular parameters are required, such as adjusting the IF frequency to 133.213MHz (125MHz + IF frequency) and inverting the spectrum. The Panadapter demonstrated ES activity at 10m, and modest software tweaks may be required for improved performance.
