Hello Tim and Gary, I have done extensive testing in trying to get a macro to perform this exact behavior...
I do not believe "currently" there is a way to make this happen via macro commands. If you perform the needed steps by hand, with lots of space between commands, it works, if you then place the exact same commands in a macro it fails. I tested by placing each command below in its own macro key using the P3 Macro tester software included with the P3 utility. Here is an example: I have a DX station at 14.010, and I want to move 14.010 to the left edge of the P3, showing the upper 5 KHz ra Macro 1: #SPN000100; Sets span to plus and minus 10 KHz. Macro 2: UP7; Moves K3 up 5 KHz. Macro 3: #FXT1; Places the P3 in sticky mode, (Fixed Tune), locking the transmit frequency to the center of the P3 screen. Macro 4: DN7; Moves the K3 down 5, dragging the transmit freq down with it, and putting the transmit freq on the left edge of the P3, exposing the upper 10 KHz of the signals on the P3. If I then fire them one at a time, everything works as expected, the transmit frequency is on the lower left edge for an up split. If I place them in a single macro, it fails, every time... 73's, and thanks, Dave For software/hardware reviews see: http://www.nk7z.net For MixW support see: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/mixw/info For SSTV help see: http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/MM-SSTV/info On Wed, 2016-02-17 at 12:30 -0600, Grant Youngman wrote: > You could -- > > Tune up 1/2 of your span width (in your example up 2.5 kHz).
