I'm trying to learn CW, in particular the sending part. I've a KX3 with
Elecraft paddle. When sending, I can see my CW on the VFO B section of
the KX3 screen but I was also hoping to view it in the Terminal section
of the KX3 Utility program. I could not get this to work and asked
Elecraft what I was doing wrong.
I learned you cannot view transmitter decoding in the Terminal screen
when you send CW directly from the KX3 using a KX3 paddle, as the KX3
does not send serial data out the ACC1 port at the same time it is
transmitting, due to limitations with MCU loading.
Have others experienced this problem? How did you overcome the issue.
The only thing I can think of currently is have an app on an
ipad/Andriod device listen to the KX3 speaker and decode what I'm
sending. I want to do this so I can see just how good/bad I'm sending
for longer transmissions.
Best regards,
