[Elecraft] K3 Programming questions

Wayne's the expert here.  I believe the rig sends unsolicited "AI" data
(data that isn't in response to a command) about once a second if any  has
changed.  The programmer's reference section on AI says "within one second"
under the AI1 topic, I suspect that might apply to AI2 as well.

I'll try the RIT/XIT and send a separate note in a bit.

Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Programming questions

I've been playing with the K3 remote control commands.  I've enabled the 
interface with a AI2; command expecting to see "FA" responses when I 
change the VFO A frequency.  I do see the FA responses, however they are 
not "continuous".  As I tune VFO A, there is a delay in the FA response 
and there is not an FA response for each tuning step.  For example, I 
see FA00007037110; followed by FA00007037160; with no intervening steps 
such as ... 37120, ... 37130, ... 37140, etc.

Also, I don't see responses to pressing the RIT or XIT buttons on the K3 
front panel.

I'm using the latest level of the firmware, 1.66.  (By the way, the 
software download from the web site works great!)

I'm probably missing some setting?  Any ideas?

Barry, WK2S
