Dave, You still may want to check that cable - or perhaps the soundcard has a high noise floor. When the audio stops, the KX3 should drop out of transmit when using VOX. Of course, I don't know what happens if VOX and PTT are asserted together. Cables are always one of the high failure items

Dave, Are you using VOX? If so, try replacing the cable between the soundcard and the KX3 mic jack, I am thinking it may have a broken shield and is picking up noise. Try switching to PTT instead of VOX. I don't know your software application nor its capabilities, but you likely need a

I have been using my KX3 for JT65 successfully for about a year, but now get this new behavior... When I go to transmit, all is well; when the transmission should end, the tones stop as expected, but the KX3 stays in transmit (until I hit the XMIT button). Clearly something is amiss. I
