[Elecraft] Now that the K-Pod is shipping, we could use your help with useful macros

They're independent Matt. The K-Pod knob works with a rocker switch directly
below the knob to operate VFO A, VFO B or the RIT/XIT offset just as if you
were at the K3 front panel. 

However, to change the RIT/XIT offset at the K-Pod those modes do need to be
initiated either by macros launched from the K-Pod or at the K3 front panel.

Is there a specification of how the macros work with the knobs? I have not
yet ordered a K-Pod, but would love to write some useful macros (especially
for the knobs). Perhaps I could test the macros using the K3 terminal in the
meantime but it would be great to know how the knobs are configured to
trigger macros first.

Advice appreciated.
