[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

[Mike Harris]

G'day,

If the VFO, mode and filter settings were remembered then all you would need
to do is work split VFO's.  Unless I'm missing something.

The filter set up on ADSP would need some careful thought though 'cos the
filter selected, AF1, AF2 etc is common to each mode.  That is, you can't
set CW to AF3 and SSB to AF1, whichever was the last one changed will change
the AFx of the other mode.  ADSP doesn't remember its AFx setting through a
power cycle.

Anyway, this has been on various wish lists for years.  I don't ever recall
seeing any comment from Elecraft about any possible implementation.

> But, the K2 doesn't do cross modes very well, one must be in CW mode to
send CW, and many have the CW filters setup for CW only, not SSB so hearing
a SSB station while in CW mode is not good either.
>
> Those with the SSB adapter COULD work cross mode IF the OP1 filter is used
in one of the CW filter positions - then use CW and CWr modes to select
either LSB or USB as required for the SSB station.  The CW frequency offset
is another matter that I have not thought about yet, but I'm certain that
could be dealt with for those wishing for cross-mode operation.

XIT.... for RX SSB, TX CW
RIT...  for TX SSB, RX CW

This naturally only works co-channel.
