Hi all,
The PX3 can now display decoded text from the KX3. Right now it's decode-only (no keyboard yet), but we plan to add the keyboard interface later this year.
For now it's 2 lines of text, replacing the function switch labels at the bottom, beneath the waterfall display. (The "LABELS" switch function now has three settings: off, FN labels, or text decode.)
With the smaller font the display shows 130 characters, and with the larger font, 84 characters. It works in all modes. You'll find this a great addition to the PX3 especially if, like me, you make a lot of RTTY or PSK-31 QSOs using only the KX3 (sans computer). With two full lines of text, you don't have to be ultra-diligent about catching call signs before they scroll off the VFO B display.
When this firmware is ready for field test we'll ask for a few volunteers to try it out. Should be later this week.
73,
Wayne
