another feature requestHello Elecraft,

I know there are a lot of changes happening right now, but I am wondering if it is in the plans for the near future to finish the CW readout project. I am finding that US blind folks are unable to use some of the new features because we have no access to them. Thanks. gerry WB6IVF

Hi Gerry,

The KX1 provides Morse-code interface tones for all controls and the menu.

The KX3 provides a Morse interface for all controls, but not the menu (yet). We'll be gradually adding menu functions, though the KX3's menu system is far more extensive and complex than the KX1's, so there's a limit to how much of it we can support. Meanwhile, we just released new KX3 firmware that corrects Morse tones on 2 meters.

Re: another feature requestHello Elecraft,

Would this feature be available on the K2 at some future time?

Thanks, Tom KG7CFC

On the K2, we support CW feedback through the KRC2-ACC. It is a small external
box that talks to the K2 over the serial interface and can read back the K2's
frequency, mode etc in CW.

We also have K2 Voice, a free PC program, that reads back K2 parameters using my
voice when theK2 is connected to a PC via its serial interface.

Re: another feature requestHello Elecraft,

In reply to this post by wayne burdick

Hello Wayne, it is been a long time since you wrote this message and I apologize for not responding. I just found it today. Anyway I appreciate what you have done with the KX one, and I didn't realize it. Although I was talking about the KX three I'm glad to know that the KX one project is working so well. There are a couple of things that I would like to see in the KX three menusee W readout system if they can happen in the near future. What is to be able to switch the antenna tuner in and out of the circuit. This I would like to see because it would be much easier for me to resonate an antenna without the tuner in the circuit andand then I would like to be able to put the junior back in the circuit to finish the matching process. The other thing that I would like to be able to access is the battery charger function. This way I could charge the batteries without having to add the him pod to the circuit. Thank you very much I don't know how the plans for increasing the menu a
ccessibility will go along with other projects and this is why I had written to ask. Thank youif this message is choppy, I apologize. I am using Siri and it does not always gets my words or expressions correctly.
