No, the problem is with straight key or an external keyer. TX Delay delays the onset of RF by the correct 8 - 20 ms but it does not also delay the entire incoming CW so the elements get truncated. This may not be an issue for those who are not using QSK but with QSK the CW elements are truncated. One solution is to use a keyer like the K1EL WinKey that permits adding a fixed length to the elements to compensate for the K3's "bit clipping". However, the proper solution would be for the K3 to extend each element by the length of TX Delay when in QSK and extend the initial element by TX Delay when in semi-break in. 73, ...
