Just wondering... in that scheme, is the particular mode always retained when you switch to a new band? Or might you have to push the button a time or two to get back to the same mode on the new band. I assume people don't generally check out all the modes on a particular band before switching to the next band. Seems more natural to choose a mode then jump to other bands while in the same mode. As I mentioned in another post, you could have pretty much the same capability as the multiple band buttons by using only the Band Up and Band Down buttons, if they were made mode specific. For example, in CW the buttons would step through one set of freqs/filter settings; in USB/LSB they would step through another different set; likewise for AM, etc. 73, Drew AF2Z _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
