Good observation, which I should have known. Only the KX3 decodes. The
KX3 Utility displays only part of what is on the KX3 text display and
must be losing something along the way. The PX3 seems to display what
is on the KX3 text display, but often adds a lot of characters. Has
anybody had success using the KX3 Utility Terminal? Fred Cady
recommends it.
