That's an excellent request. Then you could do a search within this small
PDF for short phrases. Now if you search the entire manual for a single word
you get many hits until you finally reach page 52.

, there is no
memory for Line In level per mode so I'll just have to remember to change
the K3 level when I switch modes. Alternately I could change the sound card
levels when I switch modes.

I must have done something silly (again).
My normal procedure when trying to work a DX station operating split is
to:
1. Tune the station in with VFO A, then hold the LOCK button
(keeps
me from inadvertently moving off his frequency).
2
Memory Editor is an excellent tool for that purpose.
M1 is always my CW segment, M2 is RTTY, M3 is SSB, and M4 is always PSK. But
of course changing modes in this manner also changes the frequency to that
which I have programmed the buttons.

Anybody else pretty fed up
to
access. Just about any of the special keys on the PC keyboard can be used,
not just the F keys. The explanation is in the WriteLog help file. Just
search for Elecraft. It does also require adding one or two lines to the
writelog.ini file.

without NR. And yes I do increase volume with NR engaged but not as much as
you have indicated.

Hi,
I've noticed recently that when I press NR the volume level drops what
could be called a considerable amount. I normally use NR setting of F-1-1
and K2 Control and Logging Software. You'll see it at the top of the page.

Hi Dave,
You mentioned that you put the P3 on top of the K3. Do you have your K3
tilted up (using the bail) or is your K3 flat? If tilted, I was wondering if
the P3 stays put when you push the P3 buttons.

An outboard appliance containing programmable buttons would be useful. For
example, I'll push SPOT hundreds of times during a contest. A small pod that
I could position on the left side of my computer keyboard would be nice.
Bandwidth selection from the pod would be a real bonus.

to integrate the
device into your Mac/DigiKeyer, my PC/WriteLog, another person's PC/MiwW,
etc.. Hopefully a computer savvy person will have a go at it and make the
solution available to others.

Joe, how would I use X-keys (say a stick) on a Mac running OSX 10.6.4 via

I also had inconsistencies in how I set up the band segment buttons and I
was able to clean up my scan ranges which were in a state of chaos.
