In K22 mode (extended K2 cmds), try polling the K3 via the KY; command. When the response is KY2; from the rig, the message has completed and the transmission is complete. Polling twice a second is probably adequate.
Remember that you have to send the K22; before transmitting, because if you don't you will never see KY2; coming back. P9 of the K3 Programmer's Manual, available on the Elecraft website under Manuals and Downloads, will help here too. 73, matt W6NIA K3 #24 On Sat, 07 Feb 2009 11:46:52 -0800, you wrote: >David, > Thanks.
