Thanks Wayne. Yes, I was thinking of voice-mode. If I wanted to practice my CW I would do that on the air with the hope that I would get some replies. Always looking for that next QSO. I did want to do all the adjustments for voice so I will turn the power down low and hook up a dummy load

For CW practice on the KX3, can't you just hold VOX to put the rig in PTT mode, to effectively disable the TX? (toggle it back to VOX to enable the TX) --Andrew, NV1B On Thu, Oct 18, 2012 at 4:07 PM, Wayne Burdick wrote: > This feature isn't supported on the KX3 at present. However, you can >

I am a new owner of a KX3 and it seems to me that the K3 feature, TEST for XMIT, is not supported on the KX3. I was going to use it to adjust mic gain and also VOX controls for KX3 transmit. So, just for confirmation, this feature does not exist or is it well hidden? 73, phil, K7PEH _
