This shortening shows up in the ARRL tests as well.

I should have stated that my TS-590S keying test was with VOX keying. Some
shortening of the first element would be expected. I have never connected the
PTT line of my Winkeyer.

"Kenwood does not have such an issue with any of their rigs"
Shortening of the first element was evident in the keying tests I ran on my
TS-590S. It's not an issue at 25 wpm but at 90+ wpm the first dit may be
completely lost. The shortening is not present on every element, only on the

It is there both in QSK and semi break in modes but does not occur if transmit
switching is manual
I have the upgraded synthesizer and still see the shortened dits.

The approximately 6 ms of dit shortening represents 10% of the
dit length at 20 WPM. It gets progressively worse as the speed
increases (20% at 40 WPM, 30% at 60 WPM, etc.).
Note: this only applies to K3 models that do not have the
upgraded synthesizer.
For an unmodified K3 the solution(s)
I have the new synthesizer.

Looking at it yesterday on the scope, a string of dits was about 40% duty
cycle, or even as low as 33%, depending on how you score the rise and fall
time. I did the test at 22 wpm and 44 wpm, and

First I’ve heard about this, and I’ve used K3’s since they were introduced.
Can you
Does this become apparent only above a certain speed? I'm guessing it's not
as big an issue below 30wpm or so, but would be good to know.

I have never heard of this issue until your post. In DX contests, dits
sometimes disappear so we certainly to done want wimpy dits! Does this
issue also exist with the K3S? Is there a similar solution for those of us
that use Writelog?
