Switching between SSB and Data

Page 24: Frequency Memories To start scanning, first recall a general-purpose CW, 3 for data, etc. Memories can be set up manually frequency memory as described at left. Then hold or with the Elecraft Frequency Memory Editor (pg. Until appears on VFO B (3 s). Page 25: Audio Effects. The Elecraft Frequency Memory Editor helps you maintain frequency memories using a spreadsheet format. Memories can be recalled using K3, K3S, and KX3’s MV switch or the memory editor’s “QSY” buttons. Once memories are stored in your K3, K3S, and KX3, you can disconnect the K3, K3S, and KX3 from the PC.

Is there an easy shortcut i can use to switch between SSB and Data ?
i have a K3s with the MH2 microphone..
Does the Frequency Memory Editor have the capability to make those changes?
Maybe the rear panel Mic connector?
Right now i have to turn the VOX off for SSB go to Menu, find Mic Select, turn to F.Pl Bias...
etc.
Then going back to Data i have to tune the VOX on, go to the menu, etc etc.
Thanks

Use the K3 utility to program a macro. Then program one of the M1, M2, M3 or M4 buttons to execute the macro. It's in the book.

What's wrong with the MODE switch? Tap down twice to go from SSB and Data ... tap up twice to go from Data to SSB.
Connect your computer sound card to 'Line IN' (sound card speaker)
and 'Line Out' (sound card mic/line input).
Right now i have to turn the VOX off for SSB go to Menu, find Mic
Select, turn to F.Pl Bias...
While in SSB tap MENU, select Mic SeL and set to FP.L and turn on bias.
While in DATA, tap menu, select Mic Sel and set to Line In.
Selecting mode will then automatically select the input (mic or Line)
- no need to make changes. Yes, you may still have to turn the VOX
On/Off as Elecraft *STILL* after all this time refuse to store the
VOX status separately for data and voice (SSB, AM, FM) modes but you
*can* configured most data software to assert PTT on a serial port
or switch TX/RX using software commands.

Thanks for the ideas,
i have found other guys who have had this same issue.
i downloaded the K3 Programmer's Reference manual... Daunting...
i didn't find any examples that fit, i better not mess with any of that stuff.
My WSPR data is going into the USB Mode so i can't switch to the Data Mode.
That may be the answer, if i can get my Data going into the Data Mode then when i go from Data to USB using the Mode switch, i won't have to go through the Menu to switch the Mic F,Pl and Bias.
It looks like the Macro programming function, P.11.1.2 in Fred Cady's Book, could preform the task but just a bit to complex for me.
End of topic.

Paul,

Perhaps one of the users on the list might have written the macro and you could simply copy it. That part is quite easy. I have no use so I have not written. I do have macros that I wrote, simple stuff, and use in my K-POD and have early on used others as well, thus my suggestion.

73,
