[Elecraft] KX3-PX3-computer

[Wayne Burdick]

If you're displaying text on the PX3, it will not also show up in the KX3 Utility terminal window. We may provide this capability in the future.

I copied cw/psk31 fine on the KX3,  I think I got the text on the PX3 (don't remember), but it wasn't displaying the same on the terminal mode of the KX3 utility.  When I got home I checked the old emails and there is an issue.  I solved it (during the demo) by using fldigi, BUT it would be nice to have the PX3 Keyboard for input rather then NEED the computer for keyboard entry...  (yes, I "could" use the cw key for entry...)

I found that the KX3-PX3-computer (KX3 utility program - terminal) didn't display on the computer what the KX3 decoded.  The computer made a nice display - larger then the PX3, but the PX3 allowed me to find stations on 40m during the day (and it was dead).  I sort of remember an old email about this setup not working.  I looked it up when I got home.  Still not sure why it wouldn't work...  I did use the computer with fldigi.
