I seem to have come "late to the party" on some things and been missing some
joy :)
Last Friday I bought a USB-Serial adapter so I could get ready for the
installation of the LP PAN outfit I will be getting going (after I open up and
get the KXV3A installed).
Anyhow, I thought I would first check out if the adapter worked or not and thus
I installed the K3 Firmware utility and all seemed fine for that handshaking.
Then I installed Ham Radio Deluxe on my new computer and it seemed fine too.
Had not really used HRD before, since my old laptop's screen was too small for
it to give me any real use... but on my new big monitor HRD seems FB for
helping things out.
I used it a bit on the 160 m contest.
Anyhow.. to my point....
I discovered that the SPOT button the K3 has an auto zero beat function. Wow.
Though I actually do have good tuning pitch so this is not a biggie.... but it
does help out in a rush (contest)... making things easier for guy on other end
probably.
But I found that there is no corresponding SPOT button the HRD layout.
Is there a reason for that? I could not find any button to add within HRD to
add to the default or unassigned buttons.
Anyhow, I thought it odd that so many functions of the K3 panel were on HRD,
but not SPOT.
(again I admit... things sometimes do evade me.. hence my hailing of YL to find
the marmalade in the fridge sometimes.. hi)
tnx
