We've all done it - which is why Elecraft has included an option for audible button feedback tones. New users like Buddy may find it helpful to turn these tones on. 'Hold' CONFIG to bring up the Configuration settings menu, and then rotate the VFOB knob to find SW TONES. Rotate the VFOA knob to turn this option ON. >From now on, when you either Tap or Hold a button you will hear a different pattern of feedback tones. The Owner's Manual explains this in more detail - but it's deeply hidden in the listing of CONFIG menu settings where no new user could possibly be expected to find it. While I agree with Jim K9YC about the virtues of "studying" user manuals, we should never make excuses for the shortcomings of the manuals themselves. In this particular case, the obvious place to mention the switch feedback tones is very early in the manual, when explaining that vital difference between a Tap and a Hold. And since these tones are intended to be helpful for new users, isn't it curious that the factory default setting is OFF? 73 from Ian GM3SEK >-----Original Message----- >From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of >Nr4c >Sent: 02 May 2017 03:10 >To: louis a. ives >Cc: [email protected] >Subject: Re: [Elecraft] Audio On K3 (solved) > >All it takes is a little too much pressure for too long on the "left" Mode >button and you Reverse the Mode. > >Sent from my iPhone >...nr4c. bill > > >> On May 1, 2017, at 10:39 AM, louis a. ives <[email protected]> >wrote: >> >> I feel like a idiot, Ted was right upper side band had flipped to lower side >band.
