[Elecraft] KY Command

[Bill Conkling]

Yes, I had the same issue last weekend.  I rec’d help from several listers including Dick who showed me the proper syntax for n1mm.  Below is the function key file I used with n1mm.

The "<04>;” is a ^D or ctrl-D which is an EOT (end of transmission) character from ‘days of olde’ i’m told. The brackets indicate HEX base.

I realize these are for n1mm, your software may be totally different.  Hope this helps, some.

I have no problem setting up a Keyboard shortcut which then sends the data in the KY command, however I cannot find a way to stop the K3 from transmitting after the command sends the data in KY.  I see there is an RX; command to end the TX.  I also tried a SWT16 to create a press of the XMIT button.  I cannot find a syntax that works for combining the RX or SWT16 command at the end of my KY command.  I do not want to use another key press.  I was hoping to do it with one line of data.
