Gary, If you are willing to push a different button than MKRB, you can modify your DX split procedure by using the PF1 and PF2 buttons to execute a macro that puts turns the sub-receiver on, copies VFO settings from A to B to make sure they are on the same band and consistent, sets VFO B to be the transmit VFO and puts the rig in SPLIT mode. It also moves VFO B up 1 kHz (UPB4;) and finally makes sure that RIT and XIT are off. When the rig is put into SPLIT by the "FT1;" macro, the P3's MKRB will appear automatically
If you do this, then holding PF1 instead of MKRB accomplishes everything you are trying to do. Holding PF2 restores the simplex DX configuration. Macros are programmed from the K3 utility's "Command Tester/K3 Macros" tab. I named my macros "SPLITSUB" and "NOSPLIT", which are displayed in the VFO B area when the macro is executed. The text below before the ":" is the macro label, and the text after the ":" is the macro command string. Follow the process on page 6 of the K3/KX3 Programmer's manual to create the macro, download it to the K3 and associate the PF1/PF2 buttons. SPLITSUB: SB1;SWT13;SWT13;FT1;UPB4;RT0;XT0 NOSPLIT: SB0;FT0;RT0;XT0;SWT13;SWT13 ----- 73, Stan - KR7C -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/P3-marker-B-transmit-freq-tp7585638p7585663.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 Message delivered to [email protected]
