After receiving a "459" report during a CW contact this week, it occurred to me 
that I had never actually "listened" to the transmitted CW signal from my KX3. 
Doing so, I discovered the CW weighting was set heavy by my ears (1.25), quite 
a bit different than what the CW sidetone represented, and possibly 
contributing to the readability report. I reset the weighting to "1.05" and the 
CW output now sounds exactly like the sidetone spacing. For those KX3 drivers 
out there, you may want to either listen to your transmitted signal, or simply 
trust my assessment and set menu CW WGHT to 1.05. Dennis - WU6X
