If one program opens a menu, and another program sends a VFO "UP" command, is the second program's UP command deferred somehow because the first program has a menu open?
If one program sends a frequency change command, will the second program be aware of that new frequency without polling? My point is that the programs must cooperate, and that's not always possible.

It opens the K3 COM port and sends various commands to obtain a continous flow of commonly-sought status information. It intercepts status commands from multiple programs attached to virtual COM ports and routes the appropriate status information to them. When a program sends a command to the K3 that elicits a specific reponse, the response is sent back to that program only. 73, Dick WC1M > -----Original Message----- > From: Dick Dievendorff [mailto:die...@comcast.net] > Sent: Wednesday, December 23, 2009 3:35 PM > To: 'Julian, G4ILO'; elecraft@mailman.qth.net > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 needs survey -- firmware and application software > > Would the loggers object to receiving responses to commands that they didn't > issue? > > Dick, K6KR > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net > [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Julian, G4ILO > Sent: Wednesday, December 23, 2009 12:28 PM > To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net > Subject: Re: [Elecraft] K3 needs survey -- firmware and application software > > > > > Dick Dievendorff wrote: > > > > Would you dedicate the K3's serial port to this function?
