[Elecraft] K3: re CW ID macro on SSB

[Richard Ferch]

Scott,

If Ralph's guess is correct, there is a configuration option to do this 
offsetting automatically: look at the CONFIG:CW WGHT option in the 
manual and try setting the automatic VFO offset (tap 5). Note also that 
on 30m and above you will want to use MD7 and MD2 instead of MD3 and MD1 
in your macro command string.

73,
