(Update) PX3 text not working

[nz8j]

Making some progress, found that after enabling text on the PX3 I have to turn the PX3 off then on and then the decoded text will show up on the display.  If I turn off text and on via the menu it stops decoding and won't start again until I cycle the power on the PX3.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Same here.  This is an "undocumented feature" (i.e., firmware bug).  Please E-mail Paul Saffren (psaffren at elecraft dot com).

You can enable and disable text using the "LABELS" (hold) switch.  This won't require a power-cycle to take effect.  This is probably easier than using the menu.

Hi Tim,

I just verified the bug on my unit here.  I'll put it on the list.  In the meantime you can set TxtAuto so it is enabled.  This will automatically turn on the text window whenever the KX3 is put into a text mode, i.e. CW, or DATA.

73,

Paul

What does the manual say?
