Now this is a feature I'd support too.... Over the years I've gotten reasonably good at guessing speeds, but I still tend to overestimate this. I was working some of the stations in the 7QP contest last night with my K3 and RUMLog and on several occasions estimated their speed at around 30wpm. But when I adjusted the keyer to their speed it was closer to 25wpm.
It'd be pretty cool if the rig had the option to figure out the character speed and be able to adjust the keyer accordingly. Tho if the sending station is using Farnsworth weighting, you might still want to do this manually.... As for a permanent display of keying speed, yeah I can see how the lack of real estate on the display is a problem here. But I'd support that too (tho RUMLog for example always displays the keyer speed in the keyer dialog).... 73, LS W5QD -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/K3-QSK-thumps-tp4992064p4993362.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
