Change color of K3 terminal font

Jim Leder
Not a big deal, but does anyone have a way to change the color of the RTTY transmitted text from green to another color, like red in the K3 terminal program? I have changed the font type and size, but it would be even nicer to have my transmitted text show up as red, not green. Too close to the black of received text.

I am using the K3 utility program, terminal section with FSK D mode. Really does work well.

K3 #6559. Really love this little rig! Way better than my old Pro 3!

Thanks & 73 ...

Re: Change color of K3 terminal font

Thanks Dick! I have been using the nice K3 terminal function for RTTY/FSK-D,
and it works very well. I figured out how to have my logging program active,
and the utility program active with only the one serial port on the K3 and
the serial/USB port on my laptop. Both can be active at the same time by
using a serial port emulator, VSPE, and sharing the one connection. Free for
home use. Works great!

Nice to see other ex-IBM'ers out there, especially working with Elecraft.
