MCU 2.20 / DSP 1.30, 9-10-2014
New features:
* SPLIT/RIT/XIT SAVE: The KX3 now preserves SPLIT/RIT/XIT on band change and in memories. (2-m note: SPLIT can be used to set up odd repeater splits in VFO A and B.)
* PA MODE TURNS OFF AUTOMATICALLY IF NO KXPA100 FOUND: If you set the PA MODE menu entry to ON, but no KXPA100 is connected, the menu entry will be set back to OFF within several seconds. Some users have discovered they had PA MODE set to ON unintentionally, bypassing their internal ATU (KXAT3).
* PX3 USED WITH KX3 ON 2 or 4 METERS DISABLES “SLEEP”: If a PX3 is connected and turned on, the KX3's SLEEP mode (2 and 4-meter FM battery save) is automatically disabled to prevent the spectrum display from shifting up and down during SLEEP cycles.
Misc. bug fixes:
* PX3 DISPLAY UPDATED WHEN REV SWITCH USED: REV changes only VFO A on the PX3, just as it only changes VFO A on the KX3 display.
* MORSE-CODE SWITCH TONES FIXED ON 2 and 4 METERS: USB and LSB (‘U’ and ‘L’) were reversed. Frequency readout had decimal in the wrong location.
* 60-METER UPPER BAND LIMIT (U.S.) CORRECTED: Now accommodates DATA and CW mode operation on the highest-frequency channel.
* SCROLLING VFO B INFO MESSAGES FIXED: Informational messages that use “Times Square” scrolling format now work even when a special VFO B display or text decode is in use. (Example: The “USE PHONES” reminder when turning on DUAL RX.)
