[Elecraft] KX3 Question, Transmit Test Mode

[Don Wilhelm]

Phil,

There is no TX TEST mentioned in the KX3 manual, but look for "Off-Air 
Code Practice" -- If you select PTT-CW (by holding VOX) hitting the key 
will generate only a sidetone (unless you tap XMIT) -- this is a direct 
quote from my early manual, page 16.

The original question involved also playing back memories.  Since I do 
not know whether that will also work in that 'no transmit' state, I 
suggested setting the power to as low as it will go and connecting a 
dummy load.

73,
Don W3FPR
