Hi Stan,

The secret is in how you handled the modifications to the WriteLog ini file. For example, here is a copy of what I put into my ini file for a K3 macros that I use within WriteLog. This particular macro toggles the K3 APF (audio peak filter) function when in CW. In RTTY it toggles the dual passband function.

[Elecraft_K3_commands]
Macro_10=SWH29;

If I were using the F1 key to activate this macro the shortcut within WriteLog would be as follows:
F01...................Rig1Command(10)

The number after the word "Rig" is the serial port that you are using to communicate with your K3. I use serial port 1.

The other caution is to use the correct ini file. In some operating systems there may be a duplicate ini file in a secondary location.

73,
Mike K2MK


I've been trying to control my K3's DVR with no luck. After I hit the F1 key,
I get a message in the lower left had corner of: Error result -3 sending rig
command (10).  Has anyone experienced the same thing and have you found the
correction?

Stan, K8MJZ
