[Elecraft] [KX3] Morse Practice

[Gary Hawkins]

Hi Dick,

Thanks, that works a treat.

I wonder if it's worth considering a firmware update to make the KX3 
better for standalone Morse practice without the terminal program. I 
think all that's required is either a program or fixed delay before the 
VFO B display switches from decode to freq.  Probably 0.5 to 1 secs 
would be sufficient if fixed delay.

Happy Holidays!

As soon as this happens the VOX B display almost immediately changes from decoding characters to displaying frequency.  This is a little off putting although obviously the KX3 is telling me my Morse is horrible.
