Your right. When I used Xmit button and a foot switch for transmit and they worked just fine. So that means its HRD and the CAT control that is "causing" the problem. I have tried using both the K3 controls and the keypad macro and I get the same result with both.
I guess its a "feature" of HRD!

Subject : Re: [Elecraft] Odd effect on the K3 when displaying REF*CAL
Hi Andy,
My K3 is equipped to use an external 10MHz reference. The display of
REF*CAL implies yours is similarly equipped otherwise the display would
be REF CAL.
I have never thought to TX when in the Config menu and displaying the
REF*CAL reading. However, I have now tried it, under both manual control
using the XMIT button, foot switch PTT and CAT from my PC running
Logger32 and in all cases it changes from RX to TX to RX as expected.
Feel free to let me know if I've misunderstood your query. Quite happy
to conduct further tests.
Regards,
Mike VP8NO
