The RIGblaster Plus II manual uses the term "FSK" for both AFSK and FSK transmission. Here are the relevant excerpts: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------- 8. CW or FSK SETUP: The RIGblaster Plus has two optoisolator keying circuits, one for PTT control and the other for CW or FSK keying. Both CW and FSK may be done by injecting audio tones through any model RIGblaster into the mic. jack, but with the Plus model you also have the option of direct keyed CW and/or FSK. Direct keying may allow you to use special CW or FSK filters that only work in those modes.
FSK: If you would like to use the RIGblasters keying output for RTTY FSK keying instead of CW keying you must make or buy a cable to connect the RIGblasters key out to the FSK keying terminals on the back of your radio. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------- For what is commonly called AFSK, the manual describes "FSK by injecting audio tones into the radio mic jack". You can use the K3 Mic jack on the front or rear of the radio, but a better alternative is to use the LINE IN jack on the back of the K3 as it has transformer isolation and its own independent level control in the CONGIF menu. In the K3 CONFIG parameter DATA, you select AFSK A. For what is commonly called FSK, the manual describes "RTTY FSK keying by connecting the RIGblaster keying output to the radio FSK keying terminals on the back of your radio". This means a cable that connects to the K3 DB15 ACC jack on the rear panel. PTT is also available on this jack and should be included in the cable. In the K3 CONFIG parameter DATA, you select FSK D. You need to be very clear about whether you want to transmit using the AFSK or FSK method before you setup the hardware and software. The PC connection to the RIGblaster Plus II can either be Serial RS232 or USB, per the manual.
