Re: [Elecraft] [K3] Low and High Mic gain question

Below are the Macros I use to select the Front microphone (PF1)  Rear 
microphone (FP2).
I have an electrict element in a D104 case for the front and a CM500 headset 
in the rear. You can add eq settings to these if you want different settings 
for the 2 microphones.

Front Mic
Name -MicFP
Macro - MG020;MN053;DN;DN;SWT11
Assignment - FP1
Rear Mic
Name -MicRP
Macro - MG006;MN053;DN;DN;UP;SWT11
Assignment - FP2

The above will leave you in the Microphone Select menu. I do that to verify 
it is correctly gain setting (High-Low). You can add ;MN255 (need the ; to 
separate) to have the end of the macro exit the menu after SWT11.

MGnnn is the mic gain that you use for that microphone
MN053 is Mic Sel menu
UP  DN commands are equivalent to turning the VFO A knob one step.
SWT11 is Tap switch 11 [A/B(1)]. This is a toggle.
Must exit the Mic Set menu.

Error to watch out for -- Pressing FP1 or FP2 twice in a row will give you 
the wrong gain setting. That is why I make sure to leave the menu up to 
verify it is set correctly!

I think what is needed here are two PF keys, one to set the mic up for
FrontPanel, and one for the RearPanel.

  The latest K3 manual implies that the Low and High mic gain settings
are kept separately for each of the Front and Rear mic connections,

George,

I was on the verge of developing these same macros, but I got hung up on the
toggle of the H  L gain setting being a toggle and not knowing what setting
it is to start with.  Leaving the Menu up seems to be a workable solution to
this.  I guess once you start using the macros for this, and don't do
anything to get out of sync (like using the same macro twice like you say),
this should work.

Thanks!

I have created two macros for my microphones, Heil headset rear, Icom SM-8 
front. 
The macro for the Heil is: 
MN053;DN;DN;UP;SWT11;MN255;MG030;
The macro for the Icom is:
MN053;DN;DN;SWT11;MN255;MG023;

The problem is that the High / Low setting is toggled and not saved 
seperately for the front and rear microphone. 
I see two possibilities for the developer to solve it:
either keep it seperately for front / rear or create a dedicated code for 
low and high microphone level.
I have also asked for this feature and Wayne's comment was positive. I 
don't know where it is on the list.

[Elecraft] [K3] Low and High Mic gain question

2010-09-15 Thread Randy Moore
  The latest K3 manual implies that the Low and High mic gain settings 
are kept separately for each of the Front and Rear mic connections, but 
that's not what's happening here with 4.10 firmware.  Bias is kept 
separately.  I have a Kenwood hand mic in the front connection and a 
CM500 headset in the rear - very different mic characteristics!

I have a user sequence for DXLab's Commander rig control program
(http://www.dxlabsuite.com/)  if you use that.  It does it all with one
sequence (macro).  I can email it and you can customize it for your
settings.
