Jer; I need to call attention to your statement " Were we > able to find out if the keyboard is also the cause of the dropped > characters?" No, the keyboard cannot be the cause of the dropped characters becausethe characters are being received, and displayed in the transmit portion of the monitor. I think you said you are a potential customer, so you probably are learning howthis all happens. If the keyboard was the cause of dropped characters, they would not be showing on the screen, which is much like typing an email. To go one step further, when the P3/SVGA is sending the characters to the K3, it takesa group at a time and changes the color of the characters. (It seems like they are beingput into a buffer, because it is changing the color ahead of what is being transmitted.) As long as we stay ahead of the color change, we can make corrections to our message, or type as it is being sent so the far station doesn't need to wait. This is a great tool, in my opinion. Too good to go un-used because of a glitch. The Elecraft folks have it thought out well. You may like to download the manual. Dick, n0ce
