[Elecraft] band stack macro programming

[VE3GNO Daniel via Elecraft]

Thanks Don, 
This is a good workaround solution and avoid macro programming. I think for the moment I'll go with non-macro solution until I get more study :-) in programming

Daniel,

I am not going to answer your question because I have no answers about 
macros.
However, I can offer you an alternative that I find useful.
First, I have programmed the first 10 K3 memory locations with "Quick 
Memories", so I do not have to use the band up/down buttons - just tap 
M>V and then one of the number buttons to switch to the last used 
frequency on a band.

Then I have programmed memories for the M1-M3 buttons on each band. M1 
takes me to the center of my operating range for CW, M2 for DATA modes, 
and M3 for SSB.
I reserve M4 for saving any frequency/mode of interest on that band - a 
double tap of the V>M button followed by a tap of the M4 button will 
save any frequency/mode of interest so I can return to it with a tap of 
the M>V button followed by a tap of the M4 button.

I know that is not exactly what you asked, but it works for the way I 
operate.

73,
Don W3FPR

I've been using my k3 for couple of years but never been deep into "macro" programming...shame on meNow before getting deep into study (going back to school/manuals) maybe someone already done it before and help "lazy me". Any useful macros are more than welcome
