Oops. Mine is a K780. Note that a keyboard using BLE/Bluetooth won’t work with the P3SVGA, even with a BLE dongle due to the lack of the Bluetooth stack on the P3SVGA card. Thus you must use a keyboard with a Unifying or similar dongle to communicate with the keyboard. 73! Jack, W6FB > On Jun

On the rare occasions that I program more macros, I use an old wired keyboard and a 10" external monitor. Dave, did you say they have a 64 key version out now? I also have a Pigknob I am thinking of attaching to the side of the keypad. That would accommodate all my tuning and VFO needs without

Logitech keyboards work very well with the P3SVGA. The Logitech Unifying receiver plugs into the P3SVGA’s USB port and just work. Recent keyboards such as the K380 give you additional features - you can also use the keyboard with up to two additional devices. This can be used to control both the

I have not found a way to pre-load macros either, but alas, it is the same, with or without the Genovation. The Genovation just forces you to load a lot of macros at once, so it feels like it is related. I think, no matter how you use the P3, with or without the Genovation, you always need to

Still the biggest problem in using the Genovation or P3 macros in general is the clunky keyboard interface that requires hand typing in all the macros directly into the P3.  I may have missed something but have not seen any method where you can create macros, test them, then transfer to the P3.

As long as the keyboard appears to be a dumb keyboard it should work... I have a Genovation 64 Key programmable keypad working that fires macros into the SVGA, at the push of a single button. See: https://www.nk7z.net/adding-external-keypad-k3/ I fire all sorts of prebuilt macros into the P3,

Ken, It will work with SOME wireless keyboards. Best if you can try them before buying. It must be a PC keyboard, those for the Mac will not work. 73, Don W3FPR On 6/25/2018 8:29 AM, N4OI - Ken wrote: I have a P3 and will be ordering the P3_SVGA. I assume this will NOT support a wireless
