[KX3] Key KX3 from DXLabs using Elecraft USB cable

[John L. W9LHG]

I'm trying to send CW from DXLabs to the KX3 with
WinWarbler. At the same time, I'm also running
Commander and DXKeeper.

Commander controls the KX3 fine, and WW outputs CW
but the KX3 doesn't recognize it. I had hoped that
the same Com port 5 could be used for both.

Anyone make that work, or are two Com ports required?

John,

You cannot configure Winwarbler to use the same Com port as Commander,
but you can configure WinWarbler to send requests to Commander to use
radio control commands for CW keying with a K3 or KX3. In the WinWarbler
Configuration window under the CW tab, set the Keying method to Xcvr
Ctrl App (lower left corner).

If you want to use a K1EL Winkeyer or direct serial port keying (DTR or
RTS), you have to use a separate Com port.
