I used to use MixW and I don't remember using the Esc key to toggle between
TX and RX. If the K3 goes into TX when you click the TX button then there is
nothing wrong with the way PTT is set up. If it is not allowing Esc to be
used as a toggle between TX and RX it is probably Vista that is preventing
it.

MixW can be set up to use software commands to switch between TX and RX.
Alternatively it can use one of the serial control lines (RTS and DTR). The
two methods are mutually exclusive. Only if you have selected one of the
latter options will you need to set the matching option in the K3 PTT menu.
