[Elecraft] K3 Macros in memory

I would like to thank Dick and Iain for their help in resolving this 
problem.

The answer is in the K3 Utility Help for Commands Macros, under "Macro 
assignment procedure overview."   I also found that it is important to 
TAP for a tap memory and HOLD for a hold memory.  I was uncertain about 
what I was doing, and I had a tendency to hold the keys while inputting 
the macros, which did not result in the proper response to a tap.

The keys are not programmed directly via the K3 utility.  The K3 Utility 
saves labels and software code to a numbered memory, then you use the 
CONFIG menu and key presses to assign the numbered memories to keys.  
The codes for power are as I showed in my post: "PC010;" codes 10 watts; 
"PC100:" codes 100 watts.

The procedure sounds hard until you have done it once; then it becomes 
obvious.

73,
