If you really want to add " RTTY for Dummies" and really get down to basics, I would add the initial first steps - connect the computer soundcard line out to the K3 line in, and connect the computer line in to the K3 line out - both using stereo cables with 3.5mm plugs on each end.
After that, do the steps that Bill indicated. A bit of further information - set the computer soundcard output level and the K3 Line IN level to produce 4 bars on the ALC display with the 5th bar flashing - that will assure you have the correct audio drive level, then set the desired power output with the power knob on the K3. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/28/2010 7:25 PM, Bill Conkling wrote: > I went to the web site run by AA5AU and checked his RTTY page.
