If you'd like to get a better feeling for the kind of commands you can
embed in a K3 switch macro, please see page 4 of the K3 Programmer's Reference, available here: http://www.elecraft.com/manual/K3_Pgmr's_Ref_Rev_C3.pdf A number of practical macro examples are shown. Details on how to use specific commands can be found starting on page 6. 73, Wayne N6KR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |
Why not produce a small mini panel with a VFO knob that plugs into the K3, the KPOD. This POD could possibly also work with the P3.
All the knobs or buttons on this new mini panel should be user configurable.. Maybe these PODS could be configured so that you could daisy chain them? The Ten Tec Orions tuning pod is a very good example thats fantastic to use. I like using it when browsing the internet or when working on my logging program. Another example is the Woodbox Radio TMATE for the Perseus receiver.

Maybe someone could build a microcontrolled thing using something like this 4x4 keypad?

The new switch customisation is terrific - still playing with it - seems
like it is a great way of personalising the way Split works. What would be *really* good is a way to save and restore settings on the K3 during the execution of a macro. Would it be possible to create a couple of new commands, eg. PUSH/POP which would save and restore the key parameters in the radio; frequency & bandwidth of VFOs for example. So this would function like an internal get or set command - ie. data are saved in the K3 stack and not transmitted over RS232. What parameters are saved, what stack depth etc. would become part of a "how long is a piece of string debate" no doubt. I realise this is a lot to ask :) 73 Julian VK4CMV ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

This is pretty cool! The installation and use of the new software went
smoothly. I dove into customizing the "Quick Split" macro for my specialty; CW DXing. Using Wayne's macro as a start, I added the SB1 command to (always) turn on the sub receiver and the BW$0080 to widen out the sub Rx to 800 Hz to aid in searching for the (sometimes) elusive QSX frequency of the DX station. I also changed the QSX to +1KHz since many CW DX guys who start out a session in simplex and then split as things get too busy for simplex, usually start at +1KHz. The MACRO: SWT13;SWT13;FT1;UPB4;RT0;XT0;SB1;BW$0080 Now when the weak DX that is annoying us all by working a simplex pileup finally says "up 1", a single button press gets you there before most of the rest! If the split is otherwise, I then only need spin the B VFO knob. I love it!
