There is a little program called Precision CW Fistcheck which you could use to measure the speed. It measures character speed and shows a graphical representation of each character (dots and dashes) as they are sent, supposedly within 0.1 wpm.

Of course, the overall speed depends on word spacing. You could just send a bunch of PARIS (= 1 word) and time it with a stopwatch

Can't imagine the KX3 would be off by more than 1-2 wpm...

Hi all,

Just wondering about the accuracy of the CW Words/Minute setting. How accurate 
is it?

People tell me that it seems faster then it is set to.

Using the KX3 Utility on a MacBook Pro with all the latest firmware and OS X.

Anyone knows or comments appreciated,
