[Elecraft] K3 Sub Rx idea

[wayne burdick]

I believe what Mike is asking for is to have BSET mode be more 
comprehensive -- to include things like direct frequency entry and all 
of the other controls that are normally accessible only for the main 
receiver.

The BSET switch *is* intended as a context swap that allows the front 
panel to control the sub receiver. It already allows control of many 
sub receiver parameters, including the DSP controls, mode, preamp, 
attenuator, and antenna selection. As part of the sub receiver 
band-independence feature (which I'm working on right now), I'll be 
adding additional controls to BSET. I've already added BAND change and 
noise blanker control.

I hope to have a beta version of this code available within a week or 
two. It mostly works, but I have some refinement to do before I let it 
out of the lab.
