I second Jim's enthusiasm regarding the little terminal program included with the K3 utility software. His idea about having an "immediate send" option is a good one.
Another modification that would be immensely useful for casual contest participants would be the creation of two variables that would be callable from within any of the function key macros: $serial $callsign $serial would be a number that would be assignable as part of the user interface. An associated "increment" button would allow the user to increment the number by 1. The number could also be changed to any desired value on the screen by the user. Whatever number currently appears in the field would be sent to the send buffer when called from within a user macro, e.g. F3: 599 nr $serial bk $callsign would be set up in a similar fashion and would be changeable by the user on the screen. The value of $callsign would be sent to the send buffer when called from within a user macro, e.g. F3: $callsign tu 599 nr $serial bk 73, Bill/NG3K ______________________________________________________________ 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
