Hi Gary, group, Elecraft support,
I think I have found a strong correlation between CW in SSB not
working and the QRQ setting. Here follows:
To make CW in SSB work: set CONFIG:QRQ to OFF, power-cycle the K3.
To break CW in SSB: set CONFIG:QRQ to ON, power-cycle the K3.

Hi Terry,
I suspect you'll get a number of reasons for using the feature ...
It -very- common on VHF ... 6M in this case ... when both parties in
a QSO want to log both a CW and SSB contact.
It's convenient when one wants to key the rig to set drive level, check
SWR, adjust an antenna tuner,

You can use this to check into nets where US (or at least lower 48)
folks do not have voice privileges. There are some Canadian and Alaskan
nets which run SSB but welcome folks running CW from the lower 48.

I don't remember the menu option Fred, but it is just an option that you
turn on or off then all you need to do is key the transmitter when you
are in SSB. The only problem that I have is occasionally bumping the
paddles
I use CW in SSB mode on VHF contest regularly. It is a matter of
convenience. Station is calling in SSB, and I hear them, but need to bust
through the traffic going on at the far end, especially when I am a low
power rover out in the boonies.
I try first in SSB but soon I realize I am not
Lance and Don,
That is exactly how I have my K3 configured with an external
sequencer. In voice the PTT keys the K3 and I take KEYOUT to key the
sequencer. The final stage of the sequencer defeats the INHIBIT line
to the K3 enabling transmit. I do not run QSK on VHF so I manually
switch
I can't do 6M, but I use this feature often on the other bands. I don't use
VOX. I just hooked up the antenna and verified it. Using f/w 04.36
Dick, n0ce
One thing that disappointed me is that this very useful cross-mode feature (at
least
on 6m, where I do most of my operating), is
CW works in SSB mode only if Vox is on because you have not used the
PTT. This is exactly parallel to the procedure for CW, where you can
only send without PTT by turning Vox on.

I, too, recall this being broken some time back. And I also seem to remember

CW in SSB mode generally works
Hi group,
Some time ago, I used to be able to send CW while in SSB mode, but it
no longer works. I do have the SSB +CW option on (press 1 in
CONFIG:CW WGHT), and do have the CW sidetone when I key my paddle
while in SSB mode. But the K3 does not produce RF output. I'm using
firmware version
Hi Greg,
Yes, I have tried with VOX on. I see the red TX led on the K3 come
on, I see the leftmost bar in the RF output lcd bar come on. But no
RF output on my external SWR meter. That SWR *does* show RF output
when I speak into the mike, or when I switch to CW mode and make CW.

Even with VOX on, if you assert PTT along with CW keying, you will be
transmitting in SSB mode, not CW. Try disconnecting PTT and see if it
works...

No, I think not. If I assert PTT and speak, I see plenty output

For those who say it is broken - are you by any chance in split mode? It does
not work in split(at least for me). Otherwise, works fine.
