The limit is in the KX3 firmware. According to the K3&KX3 Programmer's
Manual, the upper limit on the length of a text message that can be sent
using the KY command is 24 characters. Your original message already
comprises 24 characters after the * macros are expanded, so the added "cq "
pushed it over the limit.

Here is my F1 macro for CW contests:
F1 CQ, {CATA1ASCKY cq TEST * * test;}
If I enter two "cqs" {CATA1ASCKY cq cq TEST * * test;} the message is not
sent...is that indicative of a limit on characters transferred 'tween N1MM
and the KX3?
