The KX3 will have the same built-in RTTY and PSK31 modes as the K3:
just set the DATA mode for FSK-D or PSK-D, and turn text decode on. You can then send CW with either the attached paddle or an external paddle and the KX3 will convert it to RTTY or PSK31. The VFO B display is alphanumeric, and it can display on-air data signals. No computer needed. I just made the first QSO using the KX3's RTTY mode (FSK-D), running 12 watts. Lots of activity in the 20-meter RTTY zone today (14080-4090). I'll be monitoring 14085.00 while working on firmware today in case anyone wants a rare 6-land RTTY QSO :) 73, Wayne N6KR ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |
Hello, Wayne.
If you were sending the proper serial number, your first KX3 built-in RTTY mode contact was with me. The serial number you sent was 001. I was running a K3 at 100 w using FSK-D also. I sort of thought the call looked familiar. It was a good contest. 73, Randy, K7TQ Moscow, ID ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wayne Burdick" <[hidden email]> To: <[hidden email]> Cc: "Elecraft Reflector" <[hidden email]> Sent: Saturday, January 14, 2012 9:17 AM Subject: [Elecraft] First QSO using the KX3's built-in RTTY mode > The KX3 will have the same built-in RTTY and PSK31 modes as the K3: > just set the DATA mode for FSK-D or PSK-D, and turn text decode on. > You can then send CW with either the attached paddle or an external > paddle and the KX3 will convert it to RTTY or PSK31.
