For instance, you could set up a macro to:
•
Go to a frequency, mode, set the power level, turn off
RIT and XIT
•
Put the rig into Split mode, with VFO B 1 kHz above
VFO A
For the KX3, the macros can be written in the KX3 Utility, and
two of the macros can be assigned to the PF1 or PF2 buttons
on the KX3. The SideKar
Decoder Edition
expands that by
allowing you to create and store 20 macros, 80 characters
each in the SideKar
Decoder Edition
, and executing them with
a simple keystroke.
Rig Macros are stored and sent using the function keys,
F1
to
F10
and
Alt-F1
to
Alt-F10.
Rig macros MUST start with a
period (
.
) as the very first character. Note these 20 locations
are shared with Text Messages.
Rig Macros always start with a period (.) as the very first
character. Messages do not.
