Re: [Elecraft] CW and VOX

Been a while since I was at that load, but I do know you cannot transmit CW without VOX on. Several rigs I have used do this when using their internal keyers. What happens to me, since I use VOX in RTTY for keying, then go to SSB, and turn VOX off, then go to CW and VOX is off. According to

Good point, I had heard of folks using a foot switch for PTT instead of VOX, but never tried it. Have to check that out at some point. I just look forward to when I can force SSB Vox to always be off. Tired of switching modes and finding out that the Vox is on when the phone rings and the

You are correct, I do not have an interface. I stumbled across some setup for N1MM when I first got the K3 that used OFF-DTR. So I have never mucked about with that, since it was working. What do I set the rig to? I'm not sure what the difference between RTS-OFF and OFF-RTS is. I'll go

Yesterday, suddenly my K3 had no RF output on CW. It had been a few days since I was on so I was kind of mystified since it worked fine last week. The TX light was flashing, and I could hear the TX relay in the PW-1 amp clicking. In desperation, I went to SSB mode and there was full output power
