[Elecraft] QSK and the K3

[Don Wilhelm]

Bill,

There were some firmware changes made when the new synthesizers were 
introduced, and as I recall some of those changes involved QSK 
operation.  Initial reports on the new synthesizers from users indicated 
that QSK was better.
I have not seen any reports of QSK changes with the old synthesizers, 
but you may have "hit on something" - continue with the tests and tell 
us your results.

73,

I finally retired and heavy into ham radio once again.  I got the KXV3B for the preamp and had to jump from version 3 somethingmcu to version 5, and now have version 5.29.  Has anybody else thought the QSK  to be "slower"?  I am performing some tests recommended byElecraft to see if I have a problem but am looking for opinions from other users.
