Re: [Elecraft] Writing K3 Control Add-in for Windows4P3 and need some advice
Well, I've made some changes based on a lot of suggestions via email. This is the new version. Please ignore button sizes and placement, it hasn't been optimized yet. The whole thing is about 1/2 way there in terms of programming. One feature that I'm putting in is the ability to connect directly to HRD Logbook without HRD or a com sharing program like LPBridge or MiniDeluxe. It will have native support for HRD Logbook, DM780 and rotor control programs built in (I hope!). Any other popular logbook programs open enough to allow me to connect? Thanks for comments on the interface and if anything is missing or not.

Re: [Elecraft] Writing K3 Control Add-in for Windows4P3 and need some advice
Tom I would think you will find the VOX on/off and gain controls useful. There are some of us that rely on them in remote operation. I use an IP Power switch to control the AC. This gives you the ability to power up/down the entire station from the remote location. To power up the K3 I have a momentary relay on the output of the power supply for the K3. You turn the power supply on and the relay bumps the on pin in the accessory socket. Works great and is automatic. A crude R/C circuit accross the coil does the job. To power down the K3 takes a short data command, as you know. I have tried several remote control programs. A couple of them send this command automatically whey you shut the program down. Very cool. Together this takes the hassle out of turning the K3 on and off. The only drawback is that you must power down the power supply before you can turn the K3 back on, using the IP Power switch.

Re: [Elecraft] Writing K3 Control Add-in for Windows4P3 and need some advice
I think what will happen here is if you start looking at a competent remote control program is that all controls would be required at some point. This includes the Configuration menus. Of the different programs I have looked at none is 100%, but I probably haven't seen all that are available. As far as the stability of the VOX controls, I have found them to be very stable. Set and forget, and that is the way they should be. However there are times you may want to make changes. Like when you leave the house and forget to set things up beforehand. If you are having trouble with your VOX settings you may want to start looking for an outside cause, like the effects of RF, or something. The K3 is known as having an excellent VOX system. 73 Ed On 3/26/2013 10:10 AM, k5oai [via Elecraft] wrote: Ed wrote Tom I would think you will find the VOX on/off and gain controls useful.

Re: [Elecraft] Writing K3 Control Add-in for Windows4P3 and need some advice
Hi, You may want to consider adding the Delay adjustment. I use mine in CW depending on whether I operate QSK or not. Of course it also is used to adjust VOX delay I believe. Also the Mon (monitor) function might be of value.
