[Elecraft] K3 band data query

[Dennis Ashworth]

I operate a vertical antenna for 80 & 160M where the bandwidth is such that I need to switch in reactance between the phone and CW portions of each band. I currently do this manually, but am installing vacuum relays for switching remotely. Is there a way the K3, through the data port or whatever, can send a signal when migrating between traditional (or operator defined) phone and CW portions of the band?

Antenna matched points on 160 are at 1825 and 1855; 80M are 3520 and 3800.

I had considered sensing the K3 mode, but that’s not an acceptable solution. The 160M CW contests can often extend into the traditional phone area and FT8/WSPR often use USB mode in the CW portion.

Thoughts?
