K3 CW keying in SSB Mode

Barry Simpson
I believe that up until my last (the latest) firmware update my K3 had the
ability to send CW whilst listening in SSB mode. However I have lost that
ability and cannot find any menu or config setting which appears to relate
to that function.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction please.

 

Thanks

When at "CONFIG:CW WGHT", tap '1' to select "SSB +CW".

FIRMWARE UPDATES AND CHANGED CONFIG VALUES

KENT TRIMBLE
In reply to this post by Barry Simpson
Every once in a while firmware updates do result in changed CONFIG
values.  I suspect this results from user customized settings being
changed back to default values as a result of new coding affecting
specific functions.

After every update I run through the CONFIG bank to see which values, if
any, I need to change back to my customized settings.  Rarely do they
change, and checking them usually takes all of two minutes.

Saving the settings in the Utility would do it even quicker, but I enjoy
knob twiddling more than key punching.  I also trust my ability to knob
twist more than I do my ability to handle the Utility.

In any event, not a few postings could be avoided by checking and
restoring your CONFIG values first before turning to the reflector.

Furthermore, printing out a running copy of the /K3 Firmware Release
Notes/ and keeping them in a 3-hole binder is a quick and easy way to
find out how to /restore /CONFIG values you have previously changed.  
These /Notes/ are always more current than the /K3 Owner's Manual/.  
Plus . . . (perhaps the most important of all) . . . referring to the
/Notes/ on a regular basis updates the brain on all the enhancements
which have accrued (and will continue to accrue) to the K3.
