[Elecraft] [K3] Ameritron RCS-12

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

Easy enough to get the Ameritron controller working with the K3,
just use the Yaesu FT-1000MP settings in the Ameritron manual
(page 5 and 7) but substitute the equivalent outputs from the K3
ACC jack for those of the Yaesu "Band Data" (Linear) jack.

Unfortunately, I do not believe that the RCS-12 supports the serial
data control of the Rat Pack.  RCS-12 is designed to support three
line BCD (e.g., RCS-10) or 1 of 10 (e.g., RCS-8, microHAM 10 Switch,
etc.) but no serial data (see page 4 & 5 of the RCS-12 manual).

73,
