Eric,
Thanks for explaining that. I think being able to send text directly
will be a very worthwhile feature. It would be an interesting project
then to create a simple keyboard-to-serial controller to allow PSK
operation without the need for a pc.

Hi Doug,
The connector on the bottom of the K3 front panel is not a keyboard
connector. It is a used during manufacture for initial programming of
the K3 processor boot code.
It could possibly used for general I/O, but nothing is designed at
this time. Anything hooked up to this connector is speculation at this
point. :-)
We -do- plan to allow users to use the 'KY' serial command to send
text to the K3's PSK encoder in a future K3 f/w release.

Too bad they didn't use the same standard mini-din used on virtually

I think Elecraft have a keyboard planned for the future - there is a
k/b
port on the bottom
So maybe typing direct on a k/b connected to the K3 :-)

One thing I would like to see is a way to send text to the K3 that is
then sent as PSK31. Currently you can do this by sending morse with a
key. But, being able to send text directly through the serial port
would allow simple keyboard operation from a terminal program.
