[Elecraft] Is this feature in the K3? Have I missed it?
Is there a feature in the K3 that changes the PWR control from fine to course? I am not complaining, but it seems that at times I would like to have a course adjustment on the PWR control to set up an amplifier quickly.

Way back in early K3 days there was a request for speed-sensitive power setting, I think. Faster spinning of the knob would move the power setting faster. I think such a feature is on the "list." Of course, I could be thinking of some other similar feature .. don't remember for sure. Don K7FJ Is there a feature in the K3 that changes the PWR control from fine to course?

I'd be happy to have 1W increments below 12W and 5W increments above. Perhaps the new macro feature could be used to set the power to a convenient level? - Julian, G4ILO.

Re: [Elecraft] Is this feature in the K3? Have I missed it?
That's a feature I have often wanted to see as well. My contest buddy Al VA1MM lives 1/8 mile away and I work him to get the NS/MAR mult some times or just to say hello, and I hate to hit him with 100W. Unfortunately in a contest one has no time to adjust the K3 output power to a reasonable level for this circumstance as it is currently designed. Mind you, it does rather even the score for the couple times he has whacked me with 600W in DX contests when I have had the AGC turned OFF. 73, Gary, VE1RGB -Original Message- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Lee Buller Sent: December 7, 2009 8:32 AM To: Elecraft Reflector Subject: [Elecraft] Is this feature in the K3?

You can easily create a macro that will set the power in one button-press. For example, PC065; will set the power output to 65 watts. -- 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco __ 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

Having it set dBw would make more sense. --- On Mon, 12/7/09, Don Ehrlich wrote: > From: Don Ehrlich > Subject: [Elecraft] Is this feature in the K3?
