"Incompetent" doesn't come into this. The K3 will frequently be used by people who have never seen one before, and even people who know the rig can make mistakes. All I'm looking for is a more obvious warning that something isn't normal. It would be wrong to change any of the displays that need to be behave normally when TX Test mode is being used for its intended function. If anyone has a better suggestion than flashing the Delta-F LED (which is already being used by the K3 Utility for a similar purpose, but has no useful function while in TX Test mode) then by all means let's discuss it. -- 73 from Ian GM3SEK 'In Practice' columnist for RadCom (RSGB) http://www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
