I've not checked in detail what PTT inhibit the KX3 has, but I have
tripped it up on one occasion in the past, but I forget how how I
un-tripped it!
Certainly in some circumstances an external "interlock loop" could be
useful to have, or a key switch on the front!
On my TS870s, Menu 27 set to
T-X does not send the TX inhibit menu command.

TS-590 TX Inhibit can be activated by CAT as I described or by a manual menu
selection. There is no hardware TX inhibit for the TS-590S or TS-590SG. I think
that is a significant

Andy;
Are you saying that you have to send the radio a serial command to engage and
disengage the inhibit property? I don’t see how that is really useful for SO2R
where you need pretty much instant switching, but then I doubt that is its use
on the Kenwood.
That leads to the question of how
Without an eternal control line (inhibit), the Kenwood TX Inhibit
is more like the Elecraft Test Mode (allows operation but no RF
output). I'm looking for that external control.

Setting TX Inhibit from the Kenwood TS-590 menu simply requires selecting the
menu number, where the selection is declared in plain English, and then
selecting "on" or "off".

Wow, and I have heard that the Elecraft menu items were "cryptic"
One does not get any more cryptic that those Kenwood menu entries.
At least the Elecraft menu items are spelled out in abbreviated English
and not a string of numbers. For instance the TX INH menu is not menu
#60, but is
"How does one implement TX Inhibit on a Kenwood TS-590?"
On a TS-590S TX inhibit is menu 60. The EX command is used to change menu
settings over CAT. For a TS-590S -
EX0600; reads the inhibit status
EX06001; sets TX inhibit
EX06000; clears TX inhibit
For a TS-590SG the menu
How does one implement TX Inhibit on a Kenwood TS-590? I would
like to include that information in some of the support material
I produce for other products that interface with Kenwood rigs
among others.
I find no mention of a TX Inhibit in my review of the TS-590
Instruction Manual (or the
"was told that the WSJT-X would not effect TX INHIBIT on the K3S."
I did a quick check on my TS-590S with WSJT-X ver 1.9.1. TX inhibit is not
cleared by WSJT-X and there is no transmission. If WSJT-X could clear a TX
inhibit it would, in my opinion, be an appalling design flaw.

Don,
Thanks for that.
Just in case anyone else asks, I thought you could only select .1 or .2 seconds
delay under ADVANCED settings in WSJT-X. It turns out, you can enter any delay
you want. So, problem solved.

John,
Contact the WSJT-X developers to see if any command they issue would
disable K3 TX Inhibit. Since the exchange on FT8 is so rapid, my guess
is that they may very well disable TX Inhibit as a "safety" measure.
There is nothing about DATA A mode operation of the K3/K3S that would

I asked this question previously and was told that the WSJT-X would not effect
TX INHIBIT on the K3S.
In trying to confirm this just now, TX INHIBIT is clearly disabled when I call
CQ on FT8 digital mode.
Any thoughts?
