I believe that up until my last (the latest) firmware update my K3 had the
ability to send CW whilst listening in SSB mode. However I have lost that

. Swallowing the mic, is as much operator error
as forgetting to turn on SPLIT.
Not even the minds at Aptos and Fairview Heights can overcome human

I suspect the reason some are experiencing not working one day and
working the next day is that they are overlooking the requirement to
reboot the K3 following each firmware upgrade (just like a computer,

Can't comment about other amps, but running the K3 barefoot (or tuning
an external ATU) with the Yaesu Quadra merely requires toggling the
Quadra's OPERATE switch off. Toggle it back on to use the amp.

Is there a way to turn off the ptt
screws from Elecraft (minimal if anything),
spending research effort on a few rusty screws seems to me a substantial
waste of everyone's time.
