[Elecraft] How accurate is the CW setting on a KX3

[drewko]

There is a little program called Precision CW Fistcheck which you could 
use to measure the speed. It measures character speed and shows a 
graphical representation of each character (dots and dashes) as they are 
sent, supposedly within 0.1 wpm.

Of course, the overall speed depends on word spacing. You could just 
send a bunch of PARIS (= 1 word) and time it with a stopwatch

Can't imagine the KX3 would be off by more than 1-2 wpm...
