With the Announcement of the new KX3 Firmware that activates the DVK. I have
listed below an example of N1MM Macro's that I am using. In this example, F1
will key Memory 1 and F2 will key Memory 2. F3 will Tune the KX3 and F4 turn
VOX on and off.
F1 CQ,{CATA1ASC SWT11;} {CATA1ASC SWT19;}
F2 Exch,{CATA1ASC SWT11;} {CATA1ASC SWT27;}
F3 ATU, {CATA1ASC SWT44;}
F4 VOX, {CATA1ASC SWT29;}
Additional code can be found in the K3/KX3 Programmers reference manual
(http://www.elecraft.com/manual/K3&KX3%20Pgmrs%20Ref,%20E2.pdf) , Table # 8
- Page 23.
These macros can be entered in N1MM under Config/Change CW/SSB/Digital
Function Key Definitions - Change SSB Function Key Definitions.
This is a great addition to the KX3 for both Dx'ing and Contesting. Our
thanks to the Elecraft Team.
Regards, Irwin KD3TB

Subject: [Elecraft] KX3 BETA firmware release (rev 1.34) -- Digital Voice
Recorder (DVR)
KX3 beta firmware rev 1.34 (with DSP rev 1.04) is now available. This
release includes the new DVR feature, with two transmit messages of up to 15
seconds each. See full instructions in the release notes below.
(By the way, I'd like to thank Lyle, KK7P, for his efforts in getting the
KX3's DSP to access flash memory efficiently for DVR purposes. He had to
rewrite a lot of the DSP manufacturer's own access routines. I think he
achieved some of this while on vacation...don't tell his XYL.)
You'll need the KX3 Utility application to download and install firmware.
For full instructions, refer to our KX3 software page:

MCU 1.34 / DSP 1.04, 12-31-2012
* DVR (DIGITAL VOICE RECORDER) ADDED: There are two transmit messages of up
to 15 seconds each. Message chaining and other message-length options will
be added in a future release.
Setup: Make sure you're in a voice mode, and that the voice MONitor level is
not zero. Typical MON level is 5-10. Message record and play will work with
either VOX or PTT selected.
To record, hold REC, then tap #1 or #2. "ERASING" will appear for 4 seconds,
followed by "TAP XMT". Tap XMIT, then start speaking. To end recording, tap
XMIT again.
To play, tap MSG followed by a tap of #1 or #2.
To play with auto-repeat (e.g., a repeating CQ message), *hold* rather than
tap the #1 or #2 switch. Use MENU:MSG RPT to set the repeat interval.
