Hi Mike
I have the same in that not always but sometimes pressing say F3 the
display on the K3 shows MEM 3 but the function doesnt work. When I
mentioned it a while ago the suggestion was that it could be RF in the
shack from common mode current or similar. As yet I have not cured it or
managed to make it repeat every time. The search continues.

It was great to have the VFO right beside my keyboard and to have the advantage of sending contest macros from the K-pod meant less mouse work. The question I have is...I did notice on many occasions when pressing the "F" buttons to send a macro (e.g. VE3WDM and Mike ON or K3 functions such as spot or A/B ) the macro did not send. Sometimes it took pressing the "F" button 3 times. Other times it was first press and I noticed this on all the F buttons I was using which was F1,2 4 and 8. Has anyone else had this? My question to Elecraft (as I know they monitor the list) is....is there an issue with my new K-pod? It is very frustrating during a contest to send your call and have it not happen or your exchange and nothing and as said sometimes up to 3 tries. As well to want to spot a station and nothing happens or A/B and nothing happens.
