Wayne sed: When you assign an Mx switch to a macro (or as a menu shortcut), the firmware checks to see if that Mx switch now has *both* tap and hold functions assigned. If not, it sets both of them to the same assignment (the macro or the menu shortcut). This avoids some potential side effects. You can always assign both tap and hold functions to a single Mx switch at any time.
An Mx switch that is assigned to a macro or a menu shortcut is temporarily unavailable for message play. To restore it to message play, select CW mode, then tap Mx, tap REC, then tap Mx again. It will now function for message play in both CW/DATA and voice modes (if you have the DVR). *************************** Thank you for that explanation. After a bit of thought, I have realized that it implies that a pair of toggle macros, such as I created to switch to and from QRP, ought to be both assigned to the same Mx switch (one to tap, one to hold), rather than to two different Mx switches. So I have now assigned my two macros to M4T and M4H and am happy with the result. 73, Paul W8TM ______________________________________________________________ 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
