As a point of clarification. When I was having a totally unrelated issue, I
received a message from an Elecraft support person who stated among other
things, "Our digital mode set up procedures call for the use of software
commands to handle TX/RX switching instead of VOX control."
Since abandoning AM using my DX100 where a front panel switch initiated T/R
switching and some use of a VHF multimode using PTT, like Jim, I've never used
anything but VOX on any audio mode.

I certainly did not realize that VOX was a no-no!
In fact the DATA MODES section of the K3 manual clearly states "You cn use
either VOX or PTT."
Someone may be quoting bad advice, or misunderstanding good advice. :)
FWIW, I've NEVER used PTT for any mode to key a radio -- I use it ONLY between
radio and power amp. Only VOX works fine for all digital modes, and I also use
it for SSB. And I probably make about 9,000 QSOs a year.
