Storing Macros in K3
Locked
 
|
Wondering what is the best practice for saving macros? If I read the manual
correctly, assigning a macro to M1-M4, then I lose the ability to use that button to store a voice message. Did I read that right? It seems to me that having the macro available on the front panel is more convenient than downloading it from the K3 Utility. 73, Ron, K5HM [hidden email] www.qrz.com/db/k5hm ______________________________________________________________ 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 |

Hi Ron, correct, you'll "loose" the voice memories then. But you know there's PF1/PF2 for macros available on the front panel, too, right? Might save you from needing to assign to M1-M4 if 2 are enough. ;-) 73, Olli - DH8BQA Am 07.01.2014 15:48, schrieb K5HM: > Wondering what is the best practice for saving macros?

When you are in cw the M1-M4 can be assigned to cw messages. Change to SBB
and they can contain voice messages. 73 Elliott WA6TLA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Oliver Dröse" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Sent: Tuesday, January 07, 2014 11:02 AM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Storing Macros in K3 > > Hi Ron, > > correct, you'll "loose" the voice memories then.

I just wrote about storing macros for the PF1 and PF2 buttons on my blog, so perhaps you will find it useful. There's a description there on how a button can reprogram itself to toggle Split and related settings on/off .

Sure. As long as you do not overwrite them with macros. ;-) Yes, you can then assign M1-M4 to CW/voice messages again but then your macros are gone again. Doesn't solve the original "problem". It's either or. But of course you can mix them, i.e. M1+M2 for macros and M3+M4 for CW/voice messages. You just don't have 4 then.
