Its listed as SB *, not SBx. SB0; turns the sub receiver off and SB1; turn it
on.

The SB command is in the K3 Programmer's Reference. Look in the Command Set
Overview, Table 1 on page 1 and in the Command

involves setting mic HI/LO and bias ON/OFF that toggle by a keypress, so you

Hi Carl,
I like your idea of a reset-to-known-state command usable with macros.
I'll add this to my list.

Commands with the ! or @ prefix are Direct DSP control commands, not
commands that are executed by the main control processor in the K3.
These commands are not supported by the macro facility within the K3 at
this time. They are only supported by K3 Utility. See Important

step-by-step guide as to how to construct a Macro. So I suppose I'll limit
myself to Macros others have written - but I based on the following

I use a macro to control my external amp (not a KPA500). One macro reduces
power to the drive requirements of the amp, the other increases the power to
85 W when I don't need the amp. When I activate the 85 W macro, I must
disable the amp or it gets hit with the 85 W sending it into the protect
I want to disable the KEY OUT from the K3. I can use the DIGOUT1 and
an external relay to do that, but it would certainly be cleaner to
just disable the KEY OUT circuit. I find no command in the
Programmers Manual to do that - am I missing something?
You *CAN NOT* disable Key Out. It is a
That seems like it has to be firmware. Perhaps an off state that goes
away with any key input. Or a command to tune, no key out, which is toggled
off by tapping tune?
On a related topic, what do people do with the XMIT button? I never use it
as an alternate to footswitch or a panel mounted
XMIT is pretty handy if you're using a data mode program that doesn't
have a serial port connection from the computer to the RS232 jack. For
a while, I was using MT63 in DM780 this way. Until I got the serial
VSP's and a lot of USB - Serial mapping cleared up.

Are you saying when you activate your 85W macro it also keys the rig/amp? Maybe

Yes, yes, yes You're right. I keep forgetting this one. I have some
mental block about it. Sorry all for the blather.
It's one of the few control leads that are not driven by their own state
output from the CPU. It's run off of 7R to add the transition time to the
state change in the amp
Please! Key Out is not independently controlled by the K3 controller!
It is a hardware derivative of the 7R line (effectively Receiver Mute)
in the transceiver, There *is no way* to control the behavior of the
Key Out line separately from 7R. *PERIOD END OF STORY*
Key Out is a feature of the
Mike,
My macro doesn't key the K3/amp, but if I forget to reach over and take the
amp off-line before I do key, the protect circuit will shut the amp down
with the 85 W input. I remember ninety-five percent of the time - but
sometimes in the heat of things ... (or maybe during just a sr. moment
