And on a similar note, I'm still looking forward to an absolute S meter
mode on both the KX2 and KX3!

Hi Wayne,

Does this new release correct the S-meter reading in absolute mode when
preamp 2 is selected?

[Elecraft] K3/K3S firmware with several new features & fixes ready; looking for testers

2017-03-15 Thread Wayne Burdick 
Hi all,

We're close to a field-test K3/K3S firmware release with the following new 
features:

   * Preamp 2 (LNA) now usable on 15 and 17 meters (provides significant NF 
improvement)

   * TX monitor level at LINE OUT adjustable

   * Two new remote control commands:  VX SET (VOX on/off) and AR (RX ANT 
on/off)

...and some bug fixes:

   * K-POD tap/hold functions can be used to play/chain/repeat message buffers

   * Transmit start/stop via PTT or XMIT switch removes QSK or VOX delay, even 
if VOX mode was selected

   * AM-sync mode no longer interacts incorrectly with memory store/recall

We have some testers already identified, but could use a few more. Please email 
me directly (wayne at elecraft dot com) if you'll be available to test most or 
all of the above functions in the next day or two.

Thanks--

Wayne
