Two simple benefits:
1. With just one antenna, when a DX station is working split (transmitting
on one frequency, listening on another) you can listen on his receive *and*
transmit frequency simultaneously when you are trying to work him. This
makes it much, much easier to figure out his listenin
Once again there is a listing of an Elecraft K2 with both the KAF2 (Low Noise
Audio Filter and Real Time Clock) and the KDSP2 DSP installed in the same K2.
This is an impossibility as I understand physics, as 2 items can not occupy the
same space and time the last time I checked.

Let's be reasonable though - the Flex is not a piece of junk just because
it's in second place on the Sherwood list.
There's a whole lot of good radios behind the two of them further down the
list.
I think this W9OY, because of his obvious pro-Flex bias, should be given the
same respect as W2OY
W9OY says:
"Elecraft had their little answer to the pan adapter, what a joke. It was a
little screen maybe 9" and made the radio look like a toy. The quality of the
display was horrible"
What can you expect from a Flex radio user,they all will attack our K3's,they
all will critize our radios,
I know that. It isn't the problem, though. The problem is when you send TX;
the K3 *only* sends the idle sequence. It does not send any of the text sent
to it using the KY command.

I'm sure it could be done, and I'm sure the programmer who wrote it could
justifiably feel satisfaction at the results he got, because for sure he
would have put a lot of effort into creating it. The question is whether
those who simply downloaded his program and used it would have their
enjoyment
Julian,
To avoid the iddle sequence, just send ^D at the end of the string as
indicated in the doc. You can send text word by word or phrase by phrase (24
characters less one for ^D). Letter by letter is not convenient in data mode
but supported in CW.
