[FEATURE] remember drive power according to mode #468

Open grabauter opened 1 month ago

grabauter commented 1 month ago

Would it be possible, to (optionally / having a checkbox) remember drive power according to selected mode? Sometimes I use 80-100% drive power for SSB, and max. 50% for FT8, depending on the band with my G2.

Some days ago, after having an SSB QSO with 100%, I forgot to adjust drive power, so used 100% power for FT8, causing some smoke coming out of my external tuner. I know this can be solved with a different PA Profile, but it would be more convenient to adjust+save drive power with each mode (+band) selected.

WSJT-X can remember it's own drive power.  I added that to WSJT-X several years ago.  Audio tab "Remember power by band". Mike W9MDB
