Michael,

First of all, use DATA A instead of USB. That mode sets compression to zero and the TX EQ to flat. So whatever your settings for SSB might be, they are not disturbed.

Fldigi just sends an audio tone to the KX3. Set the audio level (with the soundcard output level and/or the KX3 mic level) so you have 4 bars illuminated on the ALC meter with the 5th bar flashing. Set the desired power level with the Power knob. You will be transmitting at the full power level.

As far as your TX and RX frequencies go, there is a way to have Fldigi lock the transmit frequency so that will not move. I don't recall just how to do it, but look in the Fldigi help file to find out which keystrokes lock TX.

I want to type my CW using Fldigi.  In attempting it, I currently have the
kx3 mode set to USB and the Fldigi mode set to CW.  I am concerned about two
things:

1.       That if someone answers me by keying his transmitter in CW mode,
his frequency will be different than mine, and when I move the red bar in
Fldigi over his signal in order to decode him, my transmit frequency will
change as well.  I want some way that both parties to the QSO are on the
same frequency.

2.       I am concerned that if I transmit CW with the kx3 set to USB
instead of CW, I will only be transmitting part of the 10 Watts that my kx3
is set to.
