Re: [Elecraft] MCU 4.51 NB

Was v4.51 sent to the 4.50 testers? If so, I missed it. The major difference I've noticed with 4.50 is that cw signals, especially the low level ones, now seem much cleaner. 73, Ted W4NZ -Original Message- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net

Re: [Elecraft] K3 And WSJT-X FT8 Timing

I find the same transmit delay when using my Icom 756ProIII as when using my K3. That indicates the transmit delay is coming from the software, not the radio. The delay is consistent, ~ 1 second. Even so, to me a 1 second delay is not a problem. On both radios manual PTT is instantaneous.
