Not at this time, but they are the world's easiest macros:

Turn RIT on: RT1;
Turn RIT off: RT0;

When I put the KPOD rocker switch in the RIT/XIT mode, unless I press the
RIT or XIT switch on my K3S but turning the knob does nothing. That's not
surprising, but is there anyway to control RIT and XIT on/off on the KPOD -
without writing a macro? Shouldn't that be built into the firmware?

Re: [Elecraft] KPOD RIT/XIT

2016-07-13 Thread Ed Muns
This is a perfect application for the K-Pod macro buttons.  If the K-Pod had 
dedicated controls that satisfied most users, it would be a K3 front panel.

As is, the K-Pod is small so it can be conveniently located and completely 
user-definable for each individual's needs of their most critical K3 functions.

I semi-answered my own question. I programmed the RIT and XIT to toggle
on/off as follows:

RIT - Macro 14 (tap F6) use SWT45; 
XIT - Macro 15 (tap F7)  use SWT47;

Seems to me that a dedicated/labeled swith setting woulf be better.

So does the same thing happen with both the K3 and K3S? There may be a
different program path involved. Also why it's beta.

Hi Frank:

I have been playing with RIT and XIT various tuning rates and cannot
duplicate it here. The K3 follows the K-Pod perfectly.

Since it's only in RIT/XIT, I wonder if you got a bad rocker switch with
intermittent contacts on the K-Pod.

Turning the K-Pod knob quickly, RIT/XIT frequency does not follow the tuning. 
But turning it slowly does follows the tuning.

[Elecraft] KPOD RIT/XIT

2016-07-10 Thread Frank Westphal

I have noticed one issue with my K-POD.

When I move the rocker switch to RIT/XIT on the K-POD and turn the 
RIT/XIT function on from the front panel of my K3 spinning the knob on 
the K-POD does not reliability change the value of the RIT/XIT. It will 
tune some but not consistently.  Turning the RIT/XIT control from the 
front panel of the K3 works normally.


VFO A and VFO B respond to turning the knob on the K-POD normally.

With the rocker switch in XIT/RIT position on the K-POD and the K3 
RIT/XIT function turned off then the K-POD tuning knob adjusts VFO A in 
coarse mode.  This is normal for the way I have the K3 programmed.


I assume this must be a bug in the 5.50 beta firmware which I have 
installed.


As a side note installing the surface mount resister in the K3 is not 
for those inexperienced in micro soldering.
