[Elecraft] [K3] K3 Memory Management

[w4grj]

As a very new (have not recieved yet) K3 owner, I am surprised the K3
memories cannot be managed from a computer, frankly had I known this I doubt
I would have spent $4,000 on this radio. Following is the reply I received
fron the author of N4PY control software

Jack,

The K3 does not support memory commands through the serial port.  That's why 
no program has this support for the K3.
