Okay so just to help others out here is the PHP snippet that I managed to get working making a cURL request to the Spektrix V3 API
 

<?php
$date = new DateTime('NOW');
$date = $date->format('D, d M Y H:i:s \G\M\T');
$LoginName = "API USERNAME";
$SecretKey = "API SECRET KEY";
$StringToSign = "GET\nFULL URL YOU ARE QUERYING\n".$date;


$StringToSignEncoded = utf8_encode( $StringToSign );
$SecretBase64Decoded = base64_decode($SecretKey);
$sha1 = hash_hmac('sha1', $StringToSignEncoded, $SecretBase64Decoded,true);

$Signature = base64_encode($sha1);

$Authorization = "SpektrixAPI3 " . $LoginName . ":" . $Signature;

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt_array($curl, array(
  CURLOPT_URL => 'FULL URL YOU ARE QUERYING',
  CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,
  CURLOPT_ENCODING => '',
  CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,
  CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 0,
  CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION => true,
  CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,
  CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => 'GET',
  CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(
    'Authorization:'.$Authorization,
    'Date:'.$date
  ),
));
$response = curl_exec($curl);
var_dump($response);
curl_close($curl);
?>

I hope this helps someone else who was stuck on this one!
