I know Ham Radio Deluxe has > provisions for setting band limits for you. I'm working on homebrew Linux software to control the K3. It has got band limits built in, but there will be bugs :) Yes, I can operate in TX test mode until I'm reasonably confident it works as expected, but there are always corner cases and unexpected situations that show up when you don't expect it. Every time you add a layer of checks you reduce the risk of a total failure - "defense in depth". So I was just trying to see if I could add a layer in the K3, it turns out not, and that's ok, I can compensate by taking extra precautions elsewhere. What I don't understand is why the whole idea seems to be so controversial. 73, Thomas 2E0ETT ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
