[Elecraft] K3 scanning

[Tom Hall]

In my leisure time while designing a new rocket or mindlessly playing
solitaire I like to scan the band. The K3 and K2 both have the scan muted as
the default. With the K2 I made up several macros in MixW to scan various
bands. In each case after I start to scan I have to stop scanning and hold
down one of the function keys that have been pre-programmed to scan for the
2 second duration in order to get un-muted scan. As far as I can see in the
new programming notes for the K3 there is no means to bypass holding down
the scan button for 2 seconds to get an un-muted scan or any means to get a
2 second button push through a program command. I know that this is a little
picky at this point but somewhere down the line would it be possible to
either make a programming command for the 2 second button push or reverse
the default scan mode in via a menu setting?

 

Anxiously awaiting my K3,

Tom, AK2B
