Our only "rolling" problem stemmed from So. California earthquakes :-) Our mills were open frame Underwood's, all caps, with a handful of barred prosigns. I think BT and AR were two of them but memory fades after 51 years. INT and IMI might have been there as well [whatever happened to INT?]. Punctuation was pretty limited and I don't recall ever using it much.

Two K3 questions:

What does the K3 output on RTTY or PSK31 when you send BT or AR with the paddle? Maybe I can monitor with the K2 and try it out if I can get the K2 to talk to the laptop.

In TEXT DECODE, is there an option to get the decoded text to come out the RS-232 connector as ASCII?
