Joe,
Your problem is that Macros cannot read anything and save it. They can
only initiate things. Setting the power to 10 watts and initiating a
TUNE is quite possible (and even spelled out in the Macro examples in
the K3 Programmer's Reference), but getting the power back to wherever
it was previously set is the difficult part. you could restore the
power to some predetermined level - say 100 watts.

Is there a way to have the K3 save a setting in a macro to restore for later
use? I got this idea after seeing Wayne’s post about the new Delay command.
I want this for a K-Pod button to do a quick squirt of RF for the auto-tuner.
The tuner senses the RF and then goes to a preset. So I’d like the button to
do the following.
Save the current Tune Power Setting
Change the Tune Power Setting to 10w
Delay 10ms
Initiate Tune
Delay 100ms
Stop Tune
Reset the Tune Power Setting to the previous setting
Thanks,
Joe
