Thanks Gary. It's a real pain when I'm in a pileup calling a DX station on SSB and accidently hit the same or another memory button before the message playing back has ended. When this happens, my transmission stops but the K3 stays in the TX node during that time . If the DX stations quickly replies during after the message ends I can not here him because the K3 hasn't yet switched back to receive. Not good :-( . Hope that this can be corrected in the near future rather than later distant future. Thanks 73, Rich - K1HTV

No word on when that will happen though. -- 73, Gary AB7MY ========= [email protected] Elecraft Technical Support On 9/19/2011 12:18 PM, Rich - K1HTV wrote: K3 DVR anomaly I use the M1-M4 CW & DVR voice memories in my K3 to store various messages. I'm using software versions MCU 4.39 / DSP 2.73 . On CW, pressing the same or different memory button while a message is playing will result in the two messages being chained, as they should be. However, when the same is tried with the voice memories this does not occur. Instead of the audio in the two memories playing sequentially, only the first memory is played. This is followed by a period of silence before the K3 switches from transmit back into the receive mode. The amount of silence depends on the length of the recording in the memory of the 2nd button that is pressed. I recorded a 2 second voice message in M1 and a 6 second message in M2. During the playback of the M1 message I pressed the M2 button. After the M1 message ended, there was 6 seconds of silence before the K3 went from transmit back into the receive mode. Again, the amount of silence depends on the length of the message in the second button that is pressed. I believe that this is a bug and not a feature :-). Are others experiencing the same anomaly? If at all possible, please modify the K3 DVR software so it allows the chaining of voice messages in the same manner as CW messages. Thanks. 73, Rich - K1HTV ----- No virus found in this message.
