[Elecraft] K3 : toggle between two powers ?

[Don Wilhelm]

Benny,

If you are willing to use the K3 Utility Command Tester, then you can 
read or set the K3 power using the "PC" command - see the K3 Programmers 
reference for a full description.
PC005; should set the power to 5 watts, and PC100; should set it to 100 
watts.  Set up 2 macros to make the switch easy.  You could add commands 
to use the K2 extended mode for finer control at low power levels if you 
wanted.

73,
Don W3FPR
