[Elecraft] Voice recorder programming

[Fred Jensen]

Yes.  You use the F-key definitions to simulate a tap or hold of M1-M4. 
There is a matrix in the Software manual that gives the codes for the 
various buttons/switches. Loggers differ as to what to put into the 
F-key definitions to indicate a command to be sent to the K3.  N1MM+ is 
CAT1ASC for radio 1 followed by the K3 switch command.  You'll have to 
look them up in your logger's documentation.

One wrinkle to this is that pressing the F-key is a "fire and forget" 
operation ... logger sends the command and gets no notice back when the 
voice message has completed. For normal usage, it isn't a problem, but 
if you are trying to build complex sets of macros, strange things can 
happen.  Note also that the syntax of the logger's command and the 
command to the K3 involve special characters like colons and semicolons, 
and they are essential.
