Scott:
The TEXT DEC level {Text Decode} is set too sensitive and/or the RF Gain
is too high. I use #3 for the TEXT DEC sensitivity on most bands,
depending on noise. And the RF Gain is reduced such that the CWT bar
only flashes on a clean signal. Getting * and E's is an indication the
sensitivity is too high and/or the RF Gain is too high. Also correct
tuning is necessary. With CWT active you should see the flashing bar in
the center. If to the left or right the tuning is not correct based on
the sidetone pitch you have selected. I get tuning close and then use
the SPOT function to correctly zero beat the signal. This is when CWT
is ON.
Copying DK9PY on 14.039 with 100% correct print this morning. He is
sending by keyboard which makes for good copy. Many hand sent CW
signals are lacking in rhythm, timing and spacing for 100% correct
copy. However, you should be able to copy some portion of the messages.

I still have not found the magic to get my kx3 to reliably yield
anything but a stream of E and *. :(

I feel that KX3 has a much better CW decoder than K3.
