Roger, Are you typing SM$ and hitting enter? Type SM$; (that's a S M dollar sign semicolon) and don't hit enter. The dollar sign is for the sub RX. 73, Mike NF4L On 4/6/2011 9:37 AM, Roger D Johnson wrote: > Using the K3 utility I typed in the S meter command, SM$, but > the program doesn't

Using the K3 utility I typed in the S meter command, SM$, but the program doesn't return a reading. It just echos the command. Obviously, I'm doing something wrong! 73, Roger __ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman

We could return an 8-bit number. I'll add this to the list. 73, Wayne N6KR On Apr 5, 2011, at 3:08 PM, Roger D Johnson wrote: > I recently asked Greg, W8WWV, if he would update his S meter Lite > program > to include the K3. He was amenable provided the K3 S meter read > command > returned 8

I recently asked Greg, W8WWV, if he would update his S meter Lite program to include the K3. He was amenable provided the K3 S meter read command returned 8 bits of data for sufficient resolution. It appears, from reading the programmer's reference manual, that the K3 command only returns 4 bits. I
