[Elecraft] Fixed bug in K3 macro handling; also fixes "lost K-Pod switch event" syndrome

[Doug Turnbull]

There are many reasons I like Elecraft and this is one of the major ones.
Thank you.   I am still amazed to have a K-Pod at all.

Tonight though I am on the KX2 with 5W into 4 el SteppIR at 24M - sort of
cheating at QRP but I want to exercise the Elecraft CW paddle.

Elecraft is a class operation.

switch event" syndrome

Hi all,

If you use a K-Pod, or K3 macros in general, you may have occasionally
noticed that a macro's name was flashed on VFO B but the macro itself didn't
get executed. This would only happen if you also had an external application
such as LP-Bridge or HRD polling the radio continuously. 

The K-Pod is affected because it uses K3 macros to define its switch
tap/hold behavior.

I found the source of the problem and will have a new field-test firmware
release by tomorrow. If you have time to test it, please email me directly.

73,
