K3/P3 External Keyboard Question

[Paul Matthews]

Hello:

I have a K3 and P3. I am using a Logitech K120 external keyboard connected to the P3.
While in the CQ WW Contest I noticed that the 1,2,3 keys (above letters)did not work (type info to screen).
It was a new keyboard so for $10 I figured it was defective. Returned it for a $3 more expensive K120 keyboard.
The 1 & 2, and D keys do not work. The numerical key (far right side) all work.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thank you 73 Paul KB4GYT

Check to make sure you do not have a blank macro or blank text message set up for those keys.

To check the text messages:  Press Ctrl-Alt-T and then use the up/down arrows to scroll through the list, look for the 1, 2 or 3 keycode.
To check the macros:  Press Ctrl-Alt-M and then do the same thing.

Did you buy the P3 used?

Hi Paul

BINGO! Yes, it was Ctrl-Alt-M that held the 1,2, and D keys. I erased them and now all is well.
 I did check Ctrl-Alt-T and cleared them but did not think about the other one.
I bought my entire K Line new; a piece at a time! What a great station.
Thank you for your help.
