Re: [Elecraft] [K3 and KX3] CW WGT observations and measurements

Hi Fred, The Weight control adds the same time extension to both Dit and Dah, therefore, as the weight changes, so will the Dit to Dah ratio. I also find that the KX3 keyer does not have a Weight of 1 when set to 1.00, it's close to 0.80. The Weight control needs to be set to 1.20 to have a

[Elecraft] [K3 and KX3] CW WGT observations and measurements

Hi all, I normally keep the K3's CW WGT setting at 1.0 because I like the 3:1 Dah:Dit ratio and the 1:1 Dit:Space ratio. When I tried that with the KX3 it sounded horrible to my ears - very choppy. So I set up to measure the Dit, Dah and Space times with an oscilloscope. I can transmit into a
