Hi Stephen & Robby, Autospot is turned on when the CWT is activated. You can see this on the S meter display. With CWT activated, the right half of the S meter display shows the CWT tuning bar. Press the CWT button to toggle it on and off. As Stephen indicated, with CWT active the SPOT button becomes an automatic spotting tool. You won't hear the spot tone but you will see the word AUTO on the bottom display and you will see VFO A change frequency to match the tone of an incoming CW signal. It will do it even if the LOCK button is activated. I haven't seen it move several KHz but maybe if the filter width is wide and there is a strong CW signal a few KHz away it might migrate that far.
I use autospot extensively and even have a keyboard shortcut for it when using WriteLog contest software. Operating search and pounce, I will use autospot several thousand times in a big two day contest. If you remember when personal computers were in their infancy there would be certain programs that were called Killer Apps because people actually ran out to buy PCs just to run those programs. For me, autospot, is a K3 Killer App. 73, Mike K2MK -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/Spot-button-QSYs-K3-tp6908448p6908725.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
