Hi.
Gene - thank you!!!
I do not need to change setting to "UNSAVE" mode.
When my log connected with K3S - PTT setting is returned as was set.
Excellent "Safe mode" add-on !!
Regards.

Winner, Winner chicken Dinner!!! Tnx Gene for providing what seems to be the
answer to my problem. By selecting the Unsafe mode in the Config menu for the
USB port as described below, the K3S now works in RTS-DTR every time. I
appreciate your help. This group is truly something else when it comes to
helping each other out. Not necessarily included in the price of the radio, but
one of the benefits of owning an Elecraft product. Tnx agn to All who replied
directly and through the Elecraft reflector.

Hi Jeff,
Try this,
PTT/KEY USE WITH THE USB PORT IMPROVED:
Some PC applications can control PTT and KEY at the K3S via the RTS/DTR signals
of the USB port. However, use of these signals may also allow
the PC s USB port initialization to unexpectedly activate transmit at the K3S.
This can happen if the
computer is turned on
after the K3S, or if the USB cable is not connected. There is now a "Safe" mode
(the default) which disables PTT-KEY transmit until the K3S receives a command
via USB, such as a
read of the rig's VFO frequency.
To turn on safe mode on/off, go into CONFIG:PTT-KEY and tap '1' to select "USB
SAFE" or "UNSAFE". Exit the menu and turn the K3S off/on.
Applications that use PTTKEY
via USB but never send commands
may require "UNSAFE" mode. In this case, unwanted transmit can be avoided by
turning the PC on
before the K3S.

Good morning. I am having a problem getting my K3S to save in the config menu
the setting for PTT-PTT. When I set it for RTS-DTR, hit menu it works fine.
Then I turn the radio off and back on and the PTT-PTT setting is back to
OFF-OFF. What am I doing wrong? How do I get the Config menu to save the
PTT-PTT setting to RTS-DTR?
Tnx Jeff W7JW
