[Elecraft] R: R: R: KX3 TX inhibit ?

[HB9CAT]

Right Mark, I shall just have used the opposite logic:

Setting "HI=Inh" in the ACC2 IO Menu de facto disables TX (TX blinking); so this is the perfect solution with no need for external HW.

Thanks for the hint !

The kx3 is different from the k3 in that the input is normally hi.  If set txinh=hi it won't transmit unless pulled low.
