[Elecraft] Re: Improvement changes to K2 and K1 transceivers

[Bill W5WVO]

John, myself and somebody else requested this feature specifically for 
VHF/UHF work. (This SSB > CW > SSB scenario is also very common on 6M, not 
just microwave bands.) I was told that they would put it on the firmware 
request list. I was assured that there is nothing in the K3's hardware 
architecture that would preclude this mode of operation. For more details on 
specifically what I asked for, see my post of 4/28/2007 at...
