Slow learner - K3

[Bill Davis Jr]

  I've had my K3/10 for 15months. It is used mostly for my VHF/UHF/Microwave IF, but a bit of QRP HF operations as well. I broke down and bought a 500hz CW filter as my Christmas. I think it will be more convenient than depending upon the DSP filter for very weak sigs. The in PBT feature is working nice. Now I had only used the K3 utility for uploading the latest and greatest from "the mother ship". I used it for filter setup and went back to play with the K3 on CW with the new filter.

  Hummmm ..... never played with K3 CW decode... wow, that works pretty well.... never played with K3 Utility Terminal ... WOW that works VERY well.... Sure had a nice 45min ragchew on 40m with mostly K3 CW decode and keyboard CW.  All there, just never thought about trying to use it. WELL DONE Elecraft gang!! That weak stuff at 10Ghz won't be copied by the K3 CW decode software, but the keyboard CW and memories are useful.

  56yrs in the hobby and still lots of fun.

Wow.  I've been using the K3 Utility Terminal to upgrade firmware and  set
macros for a while now and didn't even know about the CW decode and keyboard
 CW.  Just another thing to play with now!
The best just keeps getting better!
