[Elecraft] Power "per mode and per band"

[tomb18]

Hi You could set up a macro and use that to change bands, modes and power. 73 Tom va2fsq.com

I am inquiring if it is possible to have settings saved "per mode and 
per band".  The current system seems to be "per band" only.

Reason:  Like many, I operate data modes as well as CW/SSB.  On the 
latter two, the duty cycle is 50% or less, and running full power (100W) 
seems reasonable.  However, on the data modes, the duty cycle is 100% 
during transmit, which bothers me, both since it might strain the 
amplifier and because there is generally no need for that power.  
However, if I back off the power for data modes, it remains backed off 
when I try to use SSB or CW on that band.

It is easy to suggest programming fixes when I know nothing of the 
program.  But if this is a reasonably easy one, it would be appreciated.

Or maybe someone has found out how to do this with the present firmware 
(5.50)?

George, W3HBM
