Would it be possible to add a menu feature to change the Power On/Off
button combo to buttons on the bottom row, for example PRE+DLY. I find when using the KX3 as a base radio the BAND+ATU TUNER buttons are more difficult to press at the same time as would buttons across the bottom row.

That's kinda the idea! It's harder to have the radio accidentally get turned on while hiking up the mountain in the backpack. After all, it's a PORTABLE HF radio.
It does however get to be a pain when used on a desk even in the camper.

To clarify, I fully understand the reason the button combo is needed. I'm only asking if a menu option could be implemented to use the bottom row as an alternative, not replacing the current setting. With people using the KX3 on the desk and not portable it feels more natural to press the lower buttons.

The power switch pair is not a software controlled option, but a
hard-wired circuit that cannot be made configurable. 73, Lyle KK7P (designer of the board) On 7/17/17 3:45 PM, Scott Russell wrote: >>> On Jul 17, 2017, at 3:22 PM, Scott Russell <[hidden email]> wrote: >>> >>> Would it be possible to add a menu feature to change the Power On/Off >>> button combo to buttons on the bottom row, for example PRE+DLY. ______________________________________________________________ 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 Message delivered to [hidden email] |
