[Elecraft] Using WriteLog to control KDVR3

Hi Fabio,
Your post to Fred really caught my eye. I use Writelog 10.84 and my radio
is an Elecraft k3. I have a recorded message (SSB) in memory Nr. 1 in my
K3.

I copied your K3 macro per your post into my Writelog.ini file. I went to
the writelog keyboard shortcuts. I asssigned key F1 to Rig1Command(n)
and put NR 10 in the next blank.

My interface is a US INTERFACE NAVIGATOR which works for all
my programs to the radio. Pushing keys F2 thru F11 applies PTT to the 
K3. Escape turns it off.

My problem is....I can't make it play the message recorded in the K3.

Does it make a difference where you insert the data into writelog .ini ?
If so, where did you put it?

I'm sorry, Fabio, I need a little more specific info. I would really like this
capability. Thank you in advance.
