[Elecraft] Frequency Memory Editor

[Dick Dievendorff]

It's a huge undertaking, but one I'm considering for a rainy day.

There's a LOT of stuff in a "memory", including the two VFO frequencies,
modes, settings of more controls than you might think, repeater offsets, the
list goes on and on.  Coming up with a reasonable editor for all this is
challenging; I'm thinking of doing it with an XML file and an external
editor (and use a schema that would look nice in Excel). 

The contents of a "memory" has changed across firmware versions.

I'm also considering it separate from the K3 Utility because I currently
don't require a prerequisite install of an XML parser.

Dick, K6KR

To the best of my knowledge, the answer is no. There are no software
commands to directly get / set the memory contents, and trying to do it by
emulating button presses would I suspect be difficult and unreliable.
