Hi Wayne,
Many thanks for that - this works a treat :).

Gary,
There is a way to do this. It works equally well on the K2, K3, K3S, KX2, and
KX3.
1. Go into the KX3 Utility “Command Tester” window. (Or use any terminal
emulator application of your choice.)
2. Send the command “TT1;” to the radio from the computer. This will put the
rig into a mode where both transmitted and received characters are outputted to
the serial port, including those sent with the keyer paddle or message memories.
3. To turn this mode off, send “TT0;”.
Note that this feature works with the built-in PSK31/PSK63 and RTTY modes of
all of the rigs as well.
If you decide to try making contacts using CW or the built-in data modes, check
out the “Terminal” function of the Utility. It allows you to use the computer’s
keyboard rather than the keyer paddle.

I'm trying to learn CW, in particular the sending part. I've a KX3 with
Elecraft paddle. When sending, I can see my CW on the VFO B section of the KX3
screen but I was also hoping to view it in the Terminal section of the KX3
Utility program. I could not get this to work and asked Elecraft what I was
doing wrong.
I learned you cannot view transmitter decoding in the Terminal screen when you
send CW directly from the KX3 using a KX3 paddle, as the KX3 does not send
serial data out the ACC1 port at the same time it is transmitting, due to
limitations with MCU loading.
Have others experienced this problem? How did you overcome the issue. The
only thing I can think of currently is have an app on an ipad/Andriod device
listen to the KX3 speaker and decode what I'm sending. I want to do this so I
can see just how good/bad I'm sending for longer transmissions.
Best regards,
