Bill,

It is funny you should say that...  That was one of my motivators for
developing the Genovation keypad connectivity, I did not want to be
pressing the buttons on the K3 all the time, and wanted something that
was fast, and would execute any number of macros at a single keypress.

My hat is off to Elecraft for the support they gave me during the
development process-- they made software changes to the P3, adding a
macro for offsetting the the P3, which is part of the split + 5, and
offset the P3 to show the pileup, and were very helpful overall.  

I know of no other company that would have allowed me to talk directly
to the programmers.  That level of support is unprecedented in this
industry.
