Hi Vic, If I remember correctly, there was a discussion here a few months ago, (which I can not locate in the archives for some reason), dealing with this behavior... I think it had something to do with telling the K3 to key down in two different ways... Something along the lines of using PTT with your DTR/RTS line, and/or using VOX, etc.
Something along that line... I searched the archives but did not locate the post which covered this... I am pretty sure the words "race condition" were used in the post, so I searched the archive using that as the search term, but alas, nothing... Hopefully this will trigger someone with a better memory than I... -- Thanks and 73's, For equipment, and software setups and reviews see: www.nk7z.net for MixW support see; http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/mixw/info for Dopplergram information see: http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/dopplergram/info for MM-SSTV see: http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/MM-SSTV/info On Mon, 2014-12-29 at 15:47 +0200, Vic Rosenthal 4X6GP/K2VCO wrote: > I've seen this mentioned by others, but I don't think I've heard an > official response. > > Sometimes the P3 'freezes up' for one to three seconds when returning to > receive condition after transmitting CW.
