[Elecraft] K3 will not display decoded CW

Hi Fred,

I have tried tapping the DISP key several times and tried with both alt data
and VFO B.  The CWT indicator does not blink when I adjust the threshold
either, so it may be a decoding problem.

I am testing with a K3/0 and the remote rig boxes, getting ready to deploy
the main K3/100 to a remote site so I am not sure that I want to deploy with
Beta firmware as you cannot re-flash the firmware remotely if there are
other problems.  How stable is the 4.58 version?

BTW, I did test this with just the K3/100 in local mode also.

Thanks to Greg, AB7R for responding also.

Hi Craig,
4.51 does have some problems decoding CW and the beta 4.58 is better.
Also, you want to be displaying VFO B and not the alternate display.
Cheers and 73,

BTW my firmware is 04.51 which the utility says is the latest.

I think that I have gotten my K3 in a funny mode somehow.  It will not
display decoded CW in the VFO B area.  I turned on the TEXT DECODE and
adjusted the threshold as described in the manual.  The "T" is displayed in
the lower right corner of the display.  I can tap the DISP key and see the
clock and other setting but no  CW decode is displayed.  I have the latest
firmware installed.  This feature used to work but I haven't used it for a
while.

 Any ideas?
