[Elecraft] KX3 CW keying problem

[Petr Hlozek]

Hi,

I've been using KX3 for some time now and still have some problems
with CW keying. I'm using squeeze keying Curtis A. In the KX3 menu,
there is selected A squeeze mode but during the QSO, it seems that the
B is still enabled. The internal keyer very often adds dash, sometimes
dot. It's horrible, because of that, I have to use an external keyer
(TinyKeyer by Martin, OK1RR).

It seems the problem is not with the paddle, I tried to use two
paddles - Mercury N2DAN paddle from Bencher and Electraft Hexkey
paddle. Still the same result. It's really annoying because when I
operate from portable, I have to take care also about external keyer.
What could be the problem? KX3 SN is 7742 with latest firmware
installed.

I love CW (HSC, CWOPS, FOC) and this keying issue is the only thing I
don't like on my KX3.

Thanks for your help
