[K3] Chaining CW memories

[Julian, G4ILO]

Oh dear, it's obviously my weekend to find things wrong. :(

In the manual on page 30 it states that tapping M1 to M4 while a message is being sent chains another message on to the end of the one being played. However, it does this without allowing a space gap between the messages, so it would send DE G4ILO5NN (for example) instead of DE G4ILO 5NN. Also, at the moment I press the second M button, quite often a dot or dash or two gets dropped from the message being sent (playback speed only 24wpm).

The CW message chaining errors are fixed in firmware v2.57, tnx!

Ah, I hadn't seen it mentioned before. And with the CQ WW CW coming up, I agree that fixing it should be a priority.

Julian,

This is an old problem, and for many of us a rather big problem. I wish this would be solved before any transmit noise gates were developed :(
