You don't need a macro in N1MM, Stewart. The feature is already there. In N1MM, type ALT+F7 and it will open a window where you enter the kHz offset from the low end band edge. For example on 40m if a DX station says he's listening on 7234, type ALT+F7 then type 234 in the window. Hit ENTER and the K3's VFO B is put on 7234 and the K3 is put in the SPLIT mode. Hitting Alt+F7 again and hitting Enter with the window empty clears the split and puts everything back on VFO A.
Simple and efficient. No diddling with the K3's buttons. And it works for any split, 2kHz or 200kHz, doesn't matter, just type it in. 73, Ted W4NZ -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]]On Behalf Of Stewart Sent: Monday, October 31, 2011 4:56 AM To: John Oppenheimer; [email protected] Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 SPLIT+2 I must set up a macro in N1MM for SPLIT. The number of times instead of holding the button to select or cancel SPLIT I just pressed it and made VFO B = VFO A.... !! GRRRR !! It's the only something I really HATE about my K3. Why not use the NOR/REV button hold instead ? 73 Stewart G3RXQ Grumpy, because I am tired after 42 hours operating in CQWW !
