I was glad to see Wayne's post describing the fix for my problem, which
should work on the K3S. However, I am still not able to get the K3S paddle
input to the K3S keyer to appear in the K3 utility. I see the commands TT1;
or TT0; appear in the Command Tester window but still the K3S paddle keying
does not show up in the K3 Utility Terminal window.
I am following Mr Cady's directions in his K3S and P3 book pgs 53 and
81... I have re-installed the K3 Utility and retried several times but no
luck. The results remain as I described in my previous post below.

characters sent from K3S keyer problem

I'm beginning my learning curve with my new K3S Kit (after a trip to
Elecraft for them to correct the 400hz filter I put in backwards! Otherwise
it was a good, fun build). I'm wanting to practice CW sending and I am able
to see my K3S paddle input characters in the K3S VFO B. But I am not able
to receive the K3S paddle entered characters in the K3 Utility display. I
can enter and transmit characters via the keyboard in the K3 utility, see
them in the K3 Utility window and the K3S VFO B. I've tried the various
K3S Text Decode settings but was no help. I'm sure it's a setting
someplace, I've tried to search the archives but the posts I've found do
not address that part of the problem.
Thanks, Tom NB5Q

Hi Wayne,
Many thanks for that - this works a treat :).

Gary,
There is a way to do this. It works equally well on the K2, K3, K3S,
KX2, and KX3.
1. Go into the KX3 Utility ?Command Tester? window. (Or use any terminal
emulator application of your choice.)
2. Send the command ?TT1;? to the radio from the computer. This will put
the rig into a mode where both transmitted and received characters are
outputted to the serial port, including those sent with the keyer paddle or
message memories.
3. To turn this mode off, send ?TT0;?.
Note that this feature works with the built-in PSK31/PSK63 and RTTY
modes of all of the rigs as well.
If you decide to try making contacts using CW or the built-in data
modes, check out the ?Terminal? function of the Utility. It allows you to
use the computer?s keyboard rather than the keyer paddle.
