Matt, While what you say is the way it operates, NaP3 should indicate the carrier at the same frequency as the KX3 display.
I have not yet used NaP3 with the KX3, but it is correct for the K3. So maybe there should be an update (and additional transceiver selection) for the KX3. I have not seen posts from Pete in several weeks, so I don't know the support status of NaP3. There are others - TRX-Pan, PowerSDR-IF, HPSDR as starters for the list. Maybe one of those do it better for the KX3. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/15/2012 6:24 PM, Matt Maguire wrote: > It's option 3 :-) > > When you select CW mode, the KX3 will not set the frequency of its local > oscillator to be the same as what it displays on the screen, but will offset > it by an amount corresponding to your preferred sidetone pitch (eg. 600Hz). > This way, when a CW signal at the frequency shown on the display is mixed > with the local oscillator, you get a 600Hz tone. > > On transmit, the KX3 will generate a signal equal to the frequency shown on > the display. > > So, in order to "zero beat" a signal, you tune the incoming signal so that it > has the same pitch as your sidetone.
