KXPD3 paddles dit issue

[k6sdw]

I too was having issues with the KXPD3 paddles  on my KX3 dropping the dits at times. Long story short, I took the dit side of the key apart and "cleaned" the round barrel which makes contact with the key. and this solved the problem.


Too easy eh? Careful not to lose the very small screws and parts!

Eddy, you’re not allowed to speak Canadian even if you are close to them,
in six-land.
