Yes. There's no third-party software support to do this yet, but all 
you have to do is run a terminal emulator program on the PC, then send 
"TT1;" to the K3 (this turns on text-to-terminal). You can receive CW, 
FSK, and PSK31 this way. To transmit, you can send small packets using 
the Key command, e.g. "KY CQ DE N6KR K;".

The K3 Utility program, which includes our download, will include an 
ASCII terminal that does all this for you at some point.

For further details see the K3 Programmer's Reference, available on our 
K3 page.
