[Elecraft] KPod Programming

[Larry Gauthier (K8UT)]

Ted,

My K-Pod definitions are incomplete, but my plan is to program the 
most-common front panel operations into the K-POD. I also thought that I 
would get more mileage from the 8 buttons if the short-press and 
press-and-hold features of the K-Pod  initiated an "opposite" action (this 
also made them easier to remember).

For example:

F1: press = Split+2KHz; hold = Simplex
F2: press = BandUp; hold = BandDown
F3: press= ModeUp; hold = ModeDown
F4: press = FilterToggle; hold = also FilterToggle (not really an opposite 
action, but consistent with buttons 1 - 3)

To accomplish this, my K3 utility Macro Labels and Definitions for buttons 
1 - 4  look like this:

1: SIMPLEX, SWT13;SWT13;FT0;XT0;
2. BAND-DN, SWT09;
3. MODE-DN, SWT17;
4. FILTER-,SWT29;
.
.
.
9. SPLIT+2, SWT13;SWT13;FT1;UPB5;RT0;XT0;
10. BAND-UP, SWT10;
11. MODE-UP, SWT18;
12. FILTER+; SWT29;

These definitions outsource 90% of my "reach for the radio" activities to 
the K-Pod. I have not yet decided what role buttons 4 - 8 will perform.

Just learned that my KPod is being shipped today, for arrival late next 
week.  Has anyone officially or unofficially been gathering up suggested 
programming functions and associated macros that the K3 community thinks of 
greatest interest or use?
