Hello together,
why is the CW weight setting so crude? It would be nice if the setting would be a more common value like 3.0 as for dash length of 3 dits.
At the moment I do not understand what 1.05 really means. Wayne, can this be corrected? Kind regards! Sven, DJ2AT Am 23.12.2014 03:18, schrieb James Bennett:
Dennis - Thanks for the post. I’ve had a K3 for about five years and have really liked the feel/sound of it’s keying. Got a KX3 about a year ago and immediately noticed that is just didn’t sound the same as big brother. Not bad, but just not the same. I pretty much ignored it, as it wan’t really troubling me. But when I saw your post, I thought I’d see if that makes a difference for me. One word: WOW! I dropped my setting down to 1.05 as you suggested and now, on my KX3, it is perfect - for me, anyway. And the spacing/weight seems (to me) to be exactly like what big brother produces. Thanks!

Doing so, I discovered the CW weighting was set heavy by my ears (1.25), quite a bit different than what the CW sidetone represented, and possibly contributing to the readability report. I reset the weighting to "1.05" and the CW output now sounds exactly like the sidetone spacing. For those KX3 drivers out there, you may want to either listen to your transmitted signal, or simply trust my assessment and set menu CW WGHT to 1.05.
