And the BN commands must be 2 digits.  (I just added those) So 160 meters is
BN00; and so on. 

Also, you can set up a macro to turn both the KX3 and PX3 off with one
button push on the PX3 front panel.  First program a macro using one of the
first 8 memory locations with the following: 
PS0;#PS0;   Map it to a front panel FN key using the Text Menu sub-menu, 
(see manual). 

Here's another trick a customer came up with.  Let's say you're working a
pileup with the PX3, you have it set up for split on CW and you want to
inject your call sign very quickly.  This can be done by setting up a
keyboard macro to execute on a FN keypress: 
1) Create a macro in one of the first 8 locations so it can be mapped to a
FN key. 
2) We'll use your call sign as an example. For the message body enter:  KY
NE1I; 
3) Now using the Text Menu sub-menu, program that macro to a FN key.  

Now it's just a matter of using the PX3 VFO Marker to choose a position in
the pileup, push the encoder to QSY, followed by FN key to quickly send your
call.
