I've used WSJT-X with Commander and the K3 and *never* seen a hang in
transmit.  The K3 and KX3 use the same commands for T/R switching (*ALL*
rigs use the same T/R switching commands from WSJT-X when using DXLab
Suite Commander - with Commander doing the translation from WSJT-X
commands to the rig specific command).

I would look carefully for RF issues - when using software commands, it
is very easy for RF to scramble the TX OFF serial command.  That issue
is particularly likely with a continuous carrier mode like JT65/JT9.

Hi all,

Is anyone else using the same type of combination of software with the
KX3?  I'm using the KXUSB cable to control CAT, and an external USB
soundcard directly hooked to the KX3.

My issue is that I'm seeing some times when the KX3 does switch out of
transmit at the end of the JT9 period of 50 seconds.    This doesn't
happen often, but it has happened the past two nights.  One night the
KX3 was being used for over an hour and a half, and tonight for less
than 10 minutes.

The developer and I have been exchanging logs, and have somewhat
eliminated WSJT-X as the cause, so we're starting to look at Commander,
to see if its the culprit.    Having someone else seeing the same issue
would assist  in tracking down this bug, if indeed its a bug in the
software and not a problem with CAT control of the KX3.

  ... and if I'm the only one seeing this, I need to eliminate any short
between the headsets .. hi hi.
