[Elecraft] K3 PTT - WHHTLOT

[Don Wilhelm]

Fred,

I believe it has been clarified now - many thanks to Vic and Ed.  The 
problem that I saw was that different folks had a different view of what 
"Transmit Mode" meant when in CW mode.  I would prefer the use of 
"Transmit State" instead to describe a state of the hardware apart from 
the generation of RF by the paddles (or computer, etc.).

The prior discussion of what the action of a PTT closure while QSK or 
Semi-QSK were selected caused further drift of the terminology.

In other words, everyone knew what they were thinking, but I am not sure 
everyone knew what everyone else meant. So I had to ask.

73,
Don W3FPR
