Use the P3 menu to set one of gibe sict buttons to this feature and when you wish to save a screen, just tap the button. Don’t have a P3 anymore but this worked for me.

Re: [Elecraft] K1ZTE - KAT500
You need RF to cause the amp to know what band and freq you are using. Keying then mic on SSB won’t generate RF until you speak. CW, AM, FM or RTTY will generate RF when keying the mic (or tap the paddles in CW) and will generate the RF to tickle the Amp and ATU.

Re: [Elecraft] OT construction question
Ic I think you might be ok with a product like “JB Weld”. It’s a grey highly viscous Epoxy that can be molded into shape and machined when completely cured. Takes 24 hours to fully harden. Maybe 72 hours for full cure. I’ve seen modelers repair broken engine lugs on a model engine. When cured, drill out the mounting hole and remount the engine and go flying. As for the little mounting pieces you can make them with a file or nobler.
