[Elecraft] How to get a pgm like MSHV or WSJTx to read the K3 Sub-Rx QRG ?

[Jack Brindle]

It appears that you are looking in the radio to solve the problem you state. That is the wrong place. It is the computer software that has to ask the right question.

The CAT interface for Elecraft radios is published and maintained by Elecraft. It is available at the Elecraft web site for download. As an example, to request
the frequency of VFOA in the K3, the computer would send the string “FA;” to the K3. To retrieve the VFO B frequency, the strings is “FB;”. The computer sends
these strings. If you look at the document you will see there are many strings that retrieve or set information for the main receiver and have counterparts for the
SubReceiver. It is up to the computer software to use the correct one for their use.

The correct course of action would be to contact the authors of the various software programs that you want to access the sub receiver and file bug and enhancement
reports, asking them to support the features you seek. Again, the solution is not in the radio, but rather in the software you use.
