Hi Bob,
The Win-Test PTTOff script corrects the unwanted K3 PTT VOX delay!
Hopefully Elecraft will eventually eliminate the unwanted PTT VOX delay too.
Thanks

This is getting harder to under
This is getting harder to understand than organic chemistry was. See
interspersed questions and results of trying to duplicate. Somehow,
keying an external amp has come into this, the issue I've been trying to
duplicate for you was excessive delay in going back to receive.

In a nutshell, what you would like is PTT control when the CW comes from the
computer (via the straight key jack), and VOX when the paddles are used (via

The solution for operating full QSK with a non-QSK amp is the QSK-2500
(http://qsk2500.myfreesites.net/).
See QST Product Review in September 2016 issue.

Is a workaround to simply set the QSK delay to 0 in CW mode even when using

Okay, lets take Eric's lead and open an interesting thread directly related
to an excellent Elecraft product.
For years many of us have suffered with the odd behavior of the K3

Suppose the K3 is in the middle of a long 100 watt dash and the external ptt

If Wayne will be tearing up the code in this area, it might not be hard
to fix the problem that the internal keyer weighting is much heavier in
PTT mode than in QSK or semi-QSK VOX.

May be Elecraft can also look at the 8 msec PTT delay which cannot be
