Good Evening,
Neither band was very strong but both had QSB. Low noise and weak
signals did not work well. However, I gathered a few QNI and found next
week will have a wedding and family visits. So next Sunday's turnout
will be affected :) That's OK there are more weeks in the year.
Jim,
If you have been using SSB for FT8 what are you using for a sound card?
I don't think you can use the internal sound card for data modes when in SSB.

Jim,
Not a good idea, because any TX EQ, Compression, etc. will effect your
FT8 transmit audio.
Using DATA A will shut off all that automatically for audio data modes,
making your signal much cleaner.

Dave,
I have been using my K3S in USB mode for FT8 for many years and never had a
problem.

A potential explanation: the LINE IN level may have defaulted to zero.
The LINE IN level is adjusted using the MIC gain control, but only when MIC
SEL is set to LINE. So, you need to set MIC SEL to LINE (which turns
MIC+LIN off), adjust the MIC gain control to give the desired non-zero LINE
IN
Should be Microham Input MicroHAM CODEC and output Headset earphone
Microham CODEC on WSJT settings for audio.

I have an 100% updated K3.
Suddenly I lost capability to transmit FT8 mode.
CW and SSB works OK, I do not know about RTTY.
My K3 is connected to a MicroHam Microkeyer II.
Is my FT8 signal being generated in which sound card?

Jim and Dave,
My K3S when in DATA mode, the MIC+LIN says "not APPL".
Jim you must not be in DATA mode. You have to be in DATA mode to use the
internal sound card for FT8.
I got my K4D a year ago so it has been a while since I worried about such
things.

Jim,
I have MIC+LIN set to off, I think so that the K3s doesn't pick up room
noise when using data modes.
Also, the mic level control on the front panel affects the line in level
when you are in data a mode. In other modes, it is a mic level,
instead.
Hope that helps,

Please join us on 3784 kHz (NOTE THE NEW FREQUENCY), 9PM ET Sunday
(0100Z Monday). Note that the net stays on the same local time, when we
switch back and forth to/from Daylight time, so the UTC time changes,
but not the local time.
Now that we have moved into Daylight time and have longer
I Just received my K3S back from being serviced, but it doesn’t appear that the
Line In is functioning.
On FT8 I have the MIC+LIN set to ON, and MIC SEL to FPL.BIAS — same settings as
I have been using on my back-up K3. I am using the same cabling between PC and
both rigs, so there is no
