Thanks everyone for the ideas.I have the XG50 for the job. Doing the Temp
Comp routine hopefully will improve the reliability of decoding PSK31 directly
with the KX3 and my HCT. Yes, will write down REFCAL, save config thanks Matt.

Just back up your configuration with the KX3 utility before you start, and for
extra security write down your current refcal value. If you do somehow "make a
hash" of the compensation procedure, you can simply restore your saved
configuration to get back where you started. Even if you somehow di

My KX3 #5539 is used on and off for PSK31 and JT9 / JT65. I've made a bunch of
JT65 and JT9 QSO's with it on 80, 20, and 10 meters, in addition to quite a few
PSK31 contacts on several bands. That being said, I did do the temperature
compensation procedure before I started doing data JT9
I can't answer your question without measuring your particular KX3, and
about the only thing I can do is quote the specification of +/- 1 ppm
over 0 to 50 degC. You can better that with the Temp Compensation.
I don't think doing the Temperature Compensation will make a 'hash' of
anything, b
Tonight I have been experimenting on PSK31 at 3 watts and 5 watts. In my shack
the OSC Temp is about 38 deg and transmitting my CQ call about every 60 seconds
@ 3 watts takes the OSC Temp to 39 deg, on RX it drops back to 38 deg.
At 5 watts it goes up to 41 deg, but immediately settles back to 38
