K3 Edit CW Memories
Locked
 
|
I like the "Edit CW Memories" feature in the new K3 Utility.
If I understand the Help file correctly, a vertical line character at the end of a memory entry will force the K3 to immediately stop transmitting, thus bypassing any CW Delay selected by the front panel knob. However, I just tried it and it doesn't seem to work that way. The vertical line character seems to be simply ignored. What am I missing here? NI0C Chuck Guenther K3/100 s/n 1061 w.

The vertical line character seems to be simply ignored. What am I missing here? The prosign IM (| on a computer keyboard above \ or in CW "di-di-dah-dah") was originally added for RTTY memories to truncate the 4 second RTTY diddle at the end of messages. Prior to the K3 Utility change, the only way to enter the IM prosign was via a CW paddle input. I could be wrong but I don't believe the prosign IM serves any function in CW mode and is simply ignored (as you stated). 73, Bill W4ZV |

Chuck,
The vertical bar (!) character replaces the IM (..--) character that would be input using the CW paddles. It serves no purpose in CW, but ends the transmission without the software 4 second delay for data modes. The K3Utility help file specifically states "immediately terminate a *data* mode transmission" It does not apply to CW, and has no relationship with the front panel DELAY control. 73 Don W3FPR ni0c wrote: > I like the "Edit CW Memories" feature in the new K3 Utility. > > If I understand the Help file correctly, a vertical line character > at the end of a memory entry will force the K3 to immediately > stop transmitting, thus bypassing any CW Delay selected by > the front panel knob. > > However, I just tried it and it doesn't seem to work that way. > The vertical line character seems to be simply ignored. > What am I missing here? > > NI0C Chuck Guenther > > 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 |

This is correct. The prosign is only used in conjunction with FSK-D and PSK-D
programed memories to truncate the 4-sec trailing delay. It has no effect on playback of CW memories. ------------------------- 73, Greg - AB7R Whidbey Island WA NA-065 On Mon Apr 20 8:28 , Bill W4ZV sent: > > >NI0C: >> If I understand the Help file correctly, a vertical line character >at the end of a memory entry will force the K3 to immediately >stop transmitting, thus bypassing any CW Delay selected by >the front panel knob. > >> However, I just tried it and it doesn't seem to work that way. >The vertical line character seems to be simply ignored. >What am I missing here? > >The prosign IM (| on a computer keyboard above \ or in CW "di-di-dah-dah") >was originally added for RTTY memories to truncate the 4 second RTTY diddle >at the end of messages.

I'll make it clearer in Help that it has no effect in CW.
