You’re welcome, Bill.
I demonstrated keyboard and mouse support for the PX3 back in August, prior
to the time the PX3 added native keyboard and text message / macro support.
I also demonstrated automatically callsign recognition using the following
regular expression,
^([BFGIKMNTW]|[A-Z0-9]{2})[0-9][A-Z0-9]{0,3}[A-Z]$
Here is a whitepaper which describes this in more detail,
http://wickedstone.com/KF5WBO/Mouse-n-ClickQSY.pdf
The whitepaper includes a sample of the PoC (Proof of Concept) Mouse-n-Click
QSY Arduino firmware.
Now, I use the native PX3 keyboard and text message / macro support, but
continue to rely on my Arduino for mouse and remote knob support,

If we can convince Elecraft to add mouse / remote knob and USB hub support
(in addition to the planned thumb drive support), I hope to retire my
Arduino altogether and operate picnic table portable with only the PX3 and
KX3.
