I've just installed the KXV3, which seems to be workingas I can receive
signals through the alternate rx antenna socket.
On Config I get NOR and Test. I don't get 'ON' as the manual indicates.
I have the XV144 with a lead to run from the basic K2 without the
transverter interface. It works perfectly well on the K3.
Am I incorrect in thinking that this cable will run from the K3 when put
into the RS232 connector on the K3?
It would appear, on re-reading the manual this morning, and what has
been said below, that I need a seperate lead from the K3 ACC connector
as the RS232 lead did not work. If that is the case, what do I need to
do with the XV144 settings? Should the jumper settings till be set to
the K2 settings?
I can't find anything on the Elecraft website about this.
Any assistance much appreciated.

Ian,
Based on information I received from Wayne, I do believe that K3 ACC pin
7 is now dedicated to TX INH. There were complication in sharing it.
If the change is not in the firmware version you are using, it will be
with a forthcoming update. In other words, it cannot be used for XVTR
ON. The +12 volt output from the back of the K3 should do nicely even
though it means "Y"ing out one of the cable wires.
