[Elecraft] KX3 2-meter memory setup

[Phil Hystad]

I am a new owner of the 2-meter module for my KX3 and in fact just made my first FM repeater QSO a little bit ago. 

So, I decided to use the KX3 memory setup program that is described in the 2-meter module documentation.  I call up the web page and discover it currently supports Windows only.  I could drive over to my storage garage and dig out my old Windows Sony VAIO laptop but it would probably be easier to just manually program in the few memory locations that I care about for FM repeater stuff.

But, are there plans to create a version for Apple Mac computer users?  Or, should I write one of my own.  Doing a simple database plus table/grid app for memory cell data would be something I could do tonight after dinner on my Mac but I am wondering if the serial interface protocol for downloading the memory cell information is public or available.

So, does anyone know if this can be done using the current KX3 programing commands or if there is another interface that can be used.  I glanced through the K3/KX3 programing documentation and nothing jumped out as obvious support for 2-meter module memory cell read and write.

P.S.  I probably wouldn't write the app in one evening after dinner but maybe on a Saturday when I am not doing anything else.
