If anyone has any issues with the K3 file I would like to know of them
there are a couple of things to note
1/ Dxbase normally sends that mode before it changes the frequency, this
would mean that you will arrive on a noew ban when clicking a spot in
whatever mode you used last time on that band, the workaround in my INI
file entreies for the K3 to leave setmode empty and set the mode as part
of the frequency setting string
2/ the difference between the 2 files pasted onto the mailing list are
on the basis of if you prefer CW or CW-R as your normal CW operating
mode. you could add both files to the end of the radios.INI file if you
like but you must chnage the radio name on the second one to
[ELECRAFT_K3R]
NOTE the close bracket was missing from the file posted by Gavin and
this may break things
3/ BACK UP your radios.ini file
4/ Choose 8 bits no parity 1 stop bit and select a port speed that
matches your radio (my K3 is set for 38400 )
