[Elecraft] K3 Feature Request - TEXT DEC

I like the CW text decode feature, but only use it on my transmissions (TX ONLY) to see how my sending is doing. I like that when using TX ONLY the AGC doesn't go to AGC-S. I don't like that the display keeps switching back to VFO B between words. Very distracting. If set to CW 5--40, the di

Hi Sam, I often thought about this as well. Since the noisefloor is generally much higher on the lower bands, it would be nice if AGC threshold or RX IF gain could be scaled in relation to bandnoise levels. To do this you would need to use a table with a few setting points across HF and have ga

Hey troops, I had an idea last night while in CW QSO with my K3. I've noticed that I always turn the AF gain down when I send CW. I have the side tone volume set to just the right level for the Spot function to work, but when I send CW I want to greatly reduce the distraction from the receiver.

We originally did this, Bill, but here's the problem. Those new to the K3 sometimes forget that VFO B scrolls the menu entry and VFO A modifies the parameters. If the last-selected menu entry is in effect on power-up, you can inadvertently change something important by spinning VFO A. We initia
