Hi all,

We've been testing an experimental (field-test) KX3 firmware release that has 
the following features:

- Both PSK31 and PSK63 modes

- Up to 15 W power output (all modes) on 80-20 meters

- Increased power output on 4 meters (with KX3-4M module; some units were not 
making target of 2.5-3.0 W)

If you'd like to try this release, please email me directly. I'll take the 
first 15 or so. If I don't send you the new firmware today, hang in there -- it 
should be beta in a week or two.

Note on 15 W output level: This requires a power supply voltage of 12.8 V or 
higher on key-down as indicated by the KX3 itself (on the VFO B display). All 
of the usual firmware protections apply, i.e. the KX3 will roll power back to a 
lower level if necessary to keep current drain and temperature within a safe 
range, or if supply voltage is too low. 12 W max is the generally recommended 
level, so 15 W should be used only when really needed. And again, this is 
experimental.
