[Elecraft] Ke: Programming SWT and SWH options

Bob,

I have been wondering why the K31; command is not documented and am very 
interested in how the list responds.  I have a homebrew autotuner that sends 
SWH_ commands to the K3 and waited patiently for months for the promised 
implementation of these commands.  Then, back in February or early March I 
saw a message to the list with a casual reference to the use of the command 
K31;  to enable the SWH_ and SWT_ commands.  So I tried it and it worked and 
it is working still.  I just tried it using the command tester in the K3 
Utility program and the K3 responds to the SW25; command if I have 
previously sent the K31; command.

I noticed in your message that you typed "  K3;  "  instead of  "  K31;  ". 
I assume that is just a typo ... K3;  will not work but K31;  should work.
