Bill, I use RTTY often in contests and find it incredibly easy to use. I built a very simple interface and use FSK rather than AFSK. that does not require any adjustments etc. I do some of the AFSK modes as well but one mans settings will not be the same as another depending on software volume levels etc. it is just a trial and adjust but it works well and is an easy process. I can send you a pdf of my interface cable if you like. It works good but requires its own serial port. I have used it with a "real" serial port as well as a USB to serial adapter and it works either way. with the FSK there are no level adjustments needed. I have not used an FT5K but i used to have an FT1000 MP that i loved but i find my K3 to be the absolute best radio i have ever owned. its almost effortless to go from one mode to another. no relation to Elecraft other than a very happy owner.

I know the K3 is a great radio but I don't seem to read too many operator comments on its greatness...... thanks all.
