Different strokes, I guess. I really like the macros and the ability to
assign menu items to buttons.
Here's how I've got my K3 setup, and I really am happy with it.
M1T = AGC THR; M1H = AGC SLP
M2T = AGC DCY; M2H = AGC HLD
M3T = SPKR+PH; M3H = AF GAIN
M4T = LCD BRT; M4H = LCD DIM (Wayne's macro's)
PF1 = CW SPLT; PF2 = UNSPLT (my macro's)
It all makes sense to me, and I use these macros and menu items frequently.
I did change my UNSPLT macro to include unlocking both VFO's:
UNSPLT is now LK0;SWT11;LK0;SWT11;SWT13;FR0;RT0;XT0;
Although I am a CW operator, I almost always use my external microHam
CW Keyer with an auxiliary keypad, so I don't need M1-M4 for CW memories.
