Hi Elecraft I?m using my K3 99% for CW-Contesting and am optimizing my switch over timing between, Trasnceiver, PA and so on.
When running with the contestsoftware (WinTest) there is an exact PTT-Signal switching TRX and PA before sending CW (PTT on Delay) and after the last CW-character the PTT-line drops as fast as possible to not lose the prefix of a calling station (so no PTT tail delay). But sometimes you need to send CW with a manual keyer (internal or external) and there is no PTT on delay now and no PTT tail delay. Today we are solving the problem by using a footswitch for this "manual" operation times. Wouldn?t it be possible for the K3 firmware to have different delay time entries (for PTT ON and PTT OFF) between using the serial port keying and using the Key Ports on the back side (Paddle with the internal Keyer or even with an external keyer)? ____ 73 de Wolfgang DK9VZ ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
