Kenwood, modern Yaesu rigs and many SDRs use an auto information
mechanism that broadcasts unsolicited rig state changes, Hamlib does
not support this and turns off the function. Because several passive
devices rely on this information to detect band changes for example
this change adds code to save the AI state on start up and restores it
on exit. These devices do no need the broadcasts since when an
application using Hamlib is running as necessary state polling by the
application provides continuous rig state updates.
Buffer size is now an input parameter only as the return data length
is implicit since a null terminated C string is returned. Better
precondition checks are impelmented.
There was an inconsistency in whether the CAT terminator character is
included in returned messages. It now follows the comment in
kenwood_transaction() i.e. strips of the terminator and returns a
message length that reflects that.
Allows for a single ';' for verification with the Elecraft XG3 single
character commands.
Allow for rig specific instance data (needed by the Elecraft XG3 that
is a bit different from the rest of the Kenwood/Elecraft group).
Do not send a startup command to turn off AI mode to the Elecraft XG3
as it doesn't have that command or mode.
Restore the positive RTTY mode enabled check to the Elecraft K2 as it
appears that the MD6; and MD9; comamnds are valid even when RTTY mode
is disabled on the rig.
GCC 4.8.x revealed an error in the way the destination buffer size was
calculated for storing the K3 firmware revision. Now, instead of
declaring the array in the kenwood_priv_data structure, it is declared
as static in elecraft.c and a pointer is now assigned in the
kenwood_priv_data structure. This allows for proper calculation of the
array size for strncpy().
Create new confparams token of 'ritclr' for clearing RIT/XIT offset
without turning off RIT/XIT function. Thanks to Tor, N4OGW, for the
request. May be replaced in the future by a dedicated RIT/XIT clear
function in the Hamlib API.
The K2 and K3 support a TQ command to query the transmit status. As
only four bytes are returned it is much faster than the longer IF
command response. Access is via rig_get_ext_level--rigctl 'l' command
with a Level mnemonic of 'txst'. Returns '0' on RX and '1' on TX.

Implemented kenwood_cfg_params structure to allow RIT/XIT tokens to be
available to all Kenwood backend rigs (Fine Step and Voice announce are
also defined). K2/K3 rigs can only set/get RIT/XIT.
Updated README.k2/k3 for RIT/XIT functions and prior updates.

K2 backend will now scan for installed RTTY mode and filters per
mode upon rig_open(). Implemented get/set mode in K2. The get_mode()
function checks the filter bandwith and returns that for the width
value and the set_() function will select and set an appropriate
filter based on the width passed in.
