[Elecraft] VOX/PTT select macro ?

The VX; command (GET only) will return the current state (VOX ON or OFF =
PTT).

*Note:*  there is an error in the documentation in the K3 Programmer's
Reference
<http://www.elecraft.com/manual/K3S&K3&KX3&KX2%20Pgmrs%20Ref,%20F8.pdf>,
which says:

"RSP format: VXn; where n is 0 (VOX on) or 1 (VOX off)."

(sic)


But the observed responses are quite the opposite, and far more intuitive:

VX0;  VOX is OFF
VX1;  VOX is ON


The current Programmer's Reference still says "A SET version of the command
is planned."  But I suppose those plans are not very high on the priority
list.
