[Elecraft] K3: External Macro Launcher (Revisited)

[Cady, Fred]

Hi,
A P3 with the SVGA option can store 50, 124 character macros that can be executed with a single Ctrl-, Alt-, or Alt-Ctrl-key.  You do have to have a keyboard attached to the P3 but there are a variety of small wireless keyboards that work.
Cheers and Happy Holidays to all,
Fred KE7X

Please keep this discussion on the reflector...  I am also looking for
an external keypad for launching macros, that works with a P3, and a
computer in place as well...

Unfortunately a couple guys tried out this keypad and it didn't work properly with a K3.
