Hi all,

We've added the K3's switch macro feature to the KX3. This allows you to automate often-used remote-control command sequences by assigning them to PF1 or PF2. KX3 Utility is used to create the macros and send them to the KX3.

For example, you could create a "SPLIT+2" switch function that, with a single press of PF1 or PF2, does A>B twice (to copy all VFO A settings to VFO B), enters SPLIT, and moves VFO B up 2 kHz.

Other examples:

- use PF1 to set up TX EQ for one mic and PF2 for another
- go to a favorite frequency/mode without having to change bands first
- restore power, code speed, filter bandwidth, etc., to your favorite settings

Given the KX3's rich command set, many other custom functions can be created. For more examples and instructions, see KX3 Utility's Help information, or pages 5 and 6 of the K3/KX3 Programmer's Reference:

    http://www.elecraft.com/manual/K3&KX3%20Pgmrs%20Ref,%20E2.pdf

(The Programmer's Reference will be updated to include any special instructions for the KX3.)

I'm looking for a few volunteers to try the latest KX3 field-test firmware, which includes the macro feature. Please email me directly if you're interested.

73,
