Hi Martin, Our goal was to make the KX3 the smallest, lightest, most portable all- band/all-mode radio ever. We had to draw the line somewhere on features, battery size, number of controls, I/O connectors, etc. Included are features that felt would be used most often in portable settings. Audio-based data modes are a good example: we fully support these modes, but as you pointed out there's the small inconvenience of sharing audio I/O with headphones and speaker. On the other hand, PSK31 and RTTY can also be supported by the KX3 with nothing but the serial port (using ASCII send/receive commands). So we're providing a very usable alternative for the two most popular digital modes. You can use the Terminal function in KX3 Utility, running on PC/Mac/Linux, to do full data communications in CW, RTTY, and PSK31 modes. I don't think we can support digital audio data over our serial port, but if figure out how to do it, I'll let you know. 73, Wayne N6KR ______________________________________________________________ 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
