Serial data access to Compression Bar Graph Meter?

Rob-2
Hello group,
Is there a way to access the Compression bar graph display data using
RS-232 serial commands? I know to read the RF Power and ALC bar graph
meters using the BG command but is it possible to query the meter level  
while transmitting? And on a related note, is there a way to determine
which meter pair is currently being displayed  as set by the DISP/METER
switch?
Thanks,
--rob-- K6DQ

Re: Serial data access to Compression Bar Graph Meter?

N5GE

CP * (Speech Compression; GET/SET)
SET/RSP format: CPxxx; where xxx is 000-040 (speech compression level).

I know there is one for changing the meter display, but wasn't able to find it.

You can find ALL of the public K3 Commands Here
