[Elecraft] My wish list (of small refinements)

[Björn Mohr]

After using the K3 a few weeks I am getting addicted to it, especially some
of the features. Here is my wish list for some minor improvements that I
believe would make the K3 an even more fantastic radio;

AFX ­ Great feature! I am really start to like AFX when dxing on low bands,
especially in CW. But why isn¹t this feature available on the line out jack?
It should be an easy fix to make it available when using the radio remote or
with an external audio circuit.

Line in ­ A ³MIX² mode mixing mic input and line input to be able to quickly
put audio from the computer on air when in SSB mode.

EQ ­ Someone mentioned memories for EQ, a very good idea. I certainly want
separate equalization settings for line in and mic inputs.

LCD Backlight ­ I would like to be able to turn the LCD backlight completely
off. I know there is a daylight setting doing this, but then the LEDs lights
up like a Christmas tree. I want a setting where all lights are completely
OFF.

RX width ­ Please make the K3 remember filter choice and width by band.
Sometimes it doesn¹t and I haven¹t figured out when and why. It is a little
annoying having to ³NORM² filters when returning to a specific band and mode
after swapping around.

Those are a few minor changes I would like to see in my K3. I realize there
might be more important tasks like the sub rx, so for now just regard those
as suggestions for future improvements.
