[Elecraft] [K3] K3 software utility needed

[Julian, G4ILO]

It's a fair point you have raised, but I just did a few tests and it is
possible to select and change menu values while a program is polling during
normal operation. Clearly there is the potential for conflict - if you send
UP or DN commands hoping to change frequency it will change the menu
selection instead, just as turning the VFO will when a menu is selected. But
as long as people are aware of this and use the utilities intelligently and
don't try to tune the band at the same time as they are loading settings I
don't think there will be any problems. Not enough to render such utilities
useless, anyway. Obviously it would be easier if more options could be set
using direct commands so programs don't have to put the K3 into menu mode at
all to read or write settings.
