[Elecraft] terminal window in k3 utility

[Dick Dievendorff]

The K3's Utility's Terminal page program uses the K3's internal decoder and
shows the output on a PC screen.  Although you might send with paddles, you
may also use the PC keyboard.  There are also a few "memory" buttons to
store things you might say often, like your call, QTH, etc.

There are other "full feature" terminal programs like MMTTY and DigiPan that
use the computer's sound card for decoding.  The K3 Utility's terminal
program was intended for casual "kick the tires" sort of use and to show off
the K3's ability to decode CW in the radio.

Supported modes are CW, RTTY and PSK 31.

Is this actually a full duplex serial connection to the k3?
I am totally blind, so consider the following.
Can I set up psk sending through the paddles, and route the decoded output 
through the serial port so I can read it using the screen reader on my pc?

I've never done digital modes before, but want to give them a try, and the 
k3 looks like the way to do it.

73, and thanks for the help.
