[Elecraft] K3 - CWT ON/OFF change request

[W6NEK]

Hi Joe,
Thanks for the observation.  Yes, I now confirm that if I'm operating CW 
with the CWT function turned ON and then switch to another band (which was 
previously left in CW mode) then the CWT will remain ON.  However, if the 
band I switched to is any other mode then CW then the CWT function is turned 
OFF.  So it looks like half the request I asked for is already implemented! 
Now all that is needed is to change the firmware to leave the CWT function 
in whatever state I left it in prior to changing from CW to any other mode.

Thanks for your input Joe,
Frank - W6NEK
