[Elecraft] Is it possible to generate 1750Hz tone on HF with the K3 ?

IT's hard to figure how a 1750 "tone" would control a repeater on HF.   
And, I doubt that the system is a true repeater.  Possibly, it's a -re- 
transmitter- where a signal could be received, recorded, and then  
immediately re-transmitted.  An unattended system like that would not  
be permitted in the US, by maybe it's OK in VK-land.

It might be possible to have your computer (presuming a computer is  
used to display the SSTV video) generate a 1750 tone for you.  If you  
have the DVR recorder module, you could record -that- tone into the  
K3, and have it available to trigger the "repeater" station.  Just a  
thought.
