Lee - You can create a macro for each power level, and assign it to a button. I have one that sets the power at 45 watts for use with the amp (buttton M4), and another to set it to 100 watts (button M1) when I don't use the amp. And then there is the tune setting.
The K3 utility has a very fine help file on creating the macros, and assigning to buttons. As the old pasta sauce ad used to say "It's in there!" 73, Mike NF4L On 3/12/2011 3:28 PM, Lee Buller wrote: > Maybe a new feature.... > > A way to step through or set power out put....say at 5 - 25 - 50 - 75 - 100. > I > do like to run barefoot as much as possible, but when the dx shows up and I > have > to tune the amp (into a dummy load) I like to be able to switch quickly to 25 > watts without cranking the knob several times to get to 25 watts.
