Interesting, I just ordered a KX3 and PX3 yesterday! I didn't realize that there were provisions to plug a keyboard into a PX3, or is this a future thing?
I visited the QRPworks website and their products were one of the reasons why I chose the KX3/PX3 over an Anan-10. If Elecraft is planning to provide for the addition of a keyboard then I'm even happier about my decision. 73, Ken Alexander VE3HLS -------------------------------------------- On Wed, 7/29/15, steve <[email protected]> wrote: Subject: [Elecraft] SideKar vs PX3 To: "ELECRAFT reflector" <[email protected]> Date: Wednesday, July 29, 2015, 8:33 AM I am looking at purchasing a QRPworks SideKar display and USB keyboard terminal to use with my KX3. I guess I have given up waiting for the keyboard for the PX3. Does anyone have experience with the QRPworks products and in particular, the SideKar? I like the idea of macros and messages that allow for serial numbers. I am not sure about logging as paper seems fine, but a data file would make it easy to enter contacts into LoTW. My K1EL K42 CW Keyboard also "does" serial numbers and can embed the callers callsign into the message. I CAN use the K1EL keyboard for CW but it won't work for PSK31 or RTTY with the KX3 using a key input as the KX3 only will do PSK31/RTTY with a paddle (why not keyer generated input?). Since I want to do PSK31 with a keyboard, I may be "stuck" with a SideKar without the ability of the PX3 to handle a keyboard (and serial numbers)... What are others using for PSK31 portable (no computer) with your KX3? 73, steve WB3LGC ______________________________________________________________ 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] ______________________________________________________________ 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]
