Hi Don,

macros are a great feature. As you are building them you can test them
with the Elecraft utility and when you are happy you upload them to the radio you can set up a macro for anything you can define as a series of
commands.
take a look at the K3 programming reference guide to see what commands
are available for use (basically everything including accessing menus ) Once macros are uploaded to the radio you can assign them to

M1-M4 tap and M1-M4 Hold as well as PF1 and PF2
My Spit +2 looks like (assigned M2-tap)

DV0;SWT13;SW13;FT1;UPB5;XT0;SB1;MN111;MP001;MN255;BW$0100;


Broken down this is
DV0; (diversity off)
SWT13;SW13; (two taps of A>B) to copy all settings FT1; Split on UPB5; up 2 Khz (UPB4; up 1KHz UPB6; up 3Khz, UPB7; 5Khz )
XT0; (XIT off )
SB1; (Sub RX on)
MN111;MP001;MN255; (L-mix-R) to A Ab (main in both ears, sub in right)
BW$0100; (Set VFOB filter to 1Khz to make hearing the callers easier)

I also have a clean-up macro that puts things back to a normal,
consistent state (assigned M2-Hold)
FT0;RT0;DV0;SB1;MN111;MP000;MN255;SB0;

Broken down this is
FT0; Split off
RT0; RIT off
DV0; Diversity off
SB1; SUB on (needs to be on for next command to be valid)
MN111;MP000;MN255; (set L-mix-R to A B )
SB0; SUB off again

hope this helps

Ok more reading and searching the internet has got me started. I see you need to use the elecraft utility to make a macro and assign it to a memory button. I was trying to figure out how to do it using the radio front panel.

All the talk about split has made me want to build a quick split macro or memory button.

I started to read the manual but its not making sense to me. I guess some stuff I just need some help to learn.

Anyway what I think I want is to set up a macro button that would do the A>B double tap function then add 5k to VFOB (up 5) and then put the radio in split. Also a similar one for adding 1k to VFOB (up 1 for CW).

How would I do this and assign to M1 or M2.

I know this should be simple but what I am reading is not sinking in.

Thanks in advance for someone who can explain into my thick skull.
