Anyone come up with a way to control the VFO B knob (the small one) with
a Pig Knob on the K3?  Thanks in advance.  73 bob de w9ge ee

Hi Bob,
You can alter the commands that are sent when the knob encoder pulses so you could use UPB and DNB to control VFO B.  Since the knob has two modes, toggled between with a push of the knob, you could have one of the modes control VFO A and the other control VFO B.

The commands to configure the knob to accomplish this would be:

cw up;
cc dn;

fcw upb;
fcc dnb;

Ummm ... just program VFO B commands into the knob and switches?  If
you're looking for something switchable [e.g. PK button toggles knob
between A and B], I don't think Nick's firmware allows a PK function to
change the PK programming.  However, you could program one knob position
[the switch when pushing the knob down] for VFO A control and the other
for VFO B.  Might also be possible to program one or more switches to
select tuning rate on the K3.
