Hi all, The PX3 can now display decoded text from the KX3. Right now it's decode-only (no keyboard yet), but we plan to add the keyboard interface later this year.
For now it's 2 lines of text, replacing the function switch labels at the bottom, beneath the waterfall display. (The "LABELS" switch function now has three settings: off, FN labels, or text decode.) With the smaller font the display shows 130 characters, and with the larger font, 84 characters. It works in all modes. You'll find this a great addition to the PX3 especially if, like me, you make a lot of RTTY or PSK-31 QSOs using only the KX3 (sans computer). With two full lines of text, you don't have to be ultra-diligent about catching call signs before they scroll off the VFO B display. When this firmware is ready for field test we'll ask for a few volunteers to try it out. Should be later this week. 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 Message delivered to [email protected]
