[Elecraft] K3 Internal Keyer and Serial Contest QSO Numbers

[Jim - KE8G]

Hi Edward,
Welcome to the K3 family!! 

Yes, you are correct, there is no way for the internal keyer to increment a QSO number.

As far as alternatives, I use N1MM software for contesting.  I am sure, many others will recommend other software and external keyers to accomplish.  So, I would suggest due diligence on your part, to make sure you come up with the way that will suit your needs the best.  Take your time and investigate all avenues.

Apparently the internal keyer cannot do serial increments for contest QSOs which require such . . . or at least I couldn't find any reference to it in the manuals or on the web.  Is that correct?  The K3 won't do increments itself?  Or have I just missed something?
