KX3 CW keying problem

Petr Hlozek
Hi,

I've been using KX3 for some time now and still have some problems
with CW keying. I'm using squeeze keying Curtis A. In the KX3 menu,
there is selected A squeeze mode but during the QSO, it seems that the
B is still enabled. The internal keyer very often adds dash, sometimes
dot. It's horrible, because of that, I have to use an external keyer
(TinyKeyer by Martin, OK1RR).

It seems the problem is not with the paddle, I tried to use two
paddles - Mercury N2DAN paddle from Bencher and Electraft Hexkey
paddle. Still the same result. It's really annoying because when I
operate from portable, I have to take care also about external keyer.
What could be the problem? KX3 SN is 7742 with latest firmware
installed.

I love CW (HSC, CWOPS, FOC) and this keying issue is the only thing I
don't like on my KX3.

Thanks for your help

73 Petr, OK2CQR
