[Elecraft] T1 Operational Question

[James Bennett]

There is a button on the front, that needs to be pushed until the green light on the left starts flashing. One then has three seconds to send RF to it for it to either recall a stored setting or re-tune to find the best match.

There is also a side jack where one can send the correct band data to it, if it is available from the transmitter.

I've done that to control a bank of band filters between the antenna and a SoftRock here.  The hardware was fairly simple, re-engineering the software however, is an "ongoing" project...
