I use several with DXLab's Commander rig control module.  They use standard
K3 commands so could be used with a K-Pod.  They are in the Files area of
the Yahoo Group for DXLab.  I believe you need to be a member of that Yahoo
Group to access them; they are at http://tinyurl.com/q5lqaa4 .

The ones I use in Commander include, Spot, VOX, Tune (at 15W, then back to
full power), speakers on/off, TX test, one to adjust the tuning rate using
CONFIG:VFO CTS, one to select two different mics, one on the front and one
connected to the back, each with different TX settings, front/rear panel mic
selection, and another to do a "reverse split."

Hi,

        As I sit awaiting the K-Pod I'm looking for possible uses of it
beyond the remote tuning knob. .  Suddenly 16 possible selections will be
available 
with the TAP or HOLD functions of the PB switches .    So far I have seven  
potential uses  with 2 still at the K3 using the PF buttons.  A lot of
potential will be sitting unused.

         Looking back Fred, KE7X proposed a macro repository and it still
exists
here:

http://www.ke7x.com/home/k3-macro-repository

It is certainly underutilized.   Another source is Dave's, NK7Z. keyboard
project:

http://nk7z.net/adding-an-external-keypad-to-the-k3/

A Google search reveals more macro's.   But not any central location. The
value  
of a central location is not entirely in preventing reinventing the wheel.
There are many clever individuals on this list and the real value of a
repository is in the "Aha" moment of "Why didn't I think of that.".

I'd love to see a central location.  It may be Elecraft could host it.
Possibly with 2 areas. Elecraft checked for all models and unchecked user
submitted 
macro's.   Elecraft hosting surely would be a value added to their product 
line.  A concept from the new KX2 may be adaptable to a K3/K3S. But sharing
is required.
