[Elecraft] Firmware Update TM Command

[David Box]

Bob

This is a macro command so does not appear in the config or menu.  Take 
a look at page 27 of the Programmer Ref.  You can use the command tester 
in the Utility to try it out.

Just for reference here is the Programmer Manual reference

TM (Transmit Meter Mode; GET/SET; K3/K3S only)
RSP format:  TM0;  (SWR/RF metering) or TM1;  (CMP/ALC metering). This 
sets the transmit meter mode for
the LCD bargraphs, as well as for the BG command (equivalent to using 
the METER switch). When TM0 is in
effect, BG returns the RF level. When TM1 is in effect, BG returns the 
ALC level.
