[Elecraft] VX commands don't work

[Dick Dievendorff]

Setters don't respond.  Try ^VX1; and then follow it with ^VX; to see what it set.

rvm;  <_ commands in lower case
RVM05.67; <- responses in upper case.
vx;
VX1;
vx0;

GE Wes - Is your success on a K3 or K3s?  Just installed latest firmware
(5.67) and there is still no SET response to "VX1", although "VX" does GET the state.  Just like Don said, but this is not what is in the manual.
