The K3's internal encoder works in data modes FSK-D and PSK-D only. See K3 Utility Help, Terminal page, Data mode buttons:
<snip> Receive-only Text Decode is available in AFSK-A, but the KY command used for transmit requires CW, FSK-D or PSK-D. If no characters are sent, or sending seems to "stutter", it may be because your K3 is in an inappropriate Mode or Data sub-mode, or Text Decode is not functioning. See the Elecraft K3 Owner's Manual sections on Data Modes and "Advanced Operating Procedures: Text Decode and Display" for details. 73 de Dick, K6KR -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Doug Turnbull Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2013 3:29 AM To: 'Eric Swartz WA6HHQ - Elecraft'; [email protected] Cc: 'elecraft' Subject: [Elecraft] [K3] Trouble TX on RTTY Gentlemen, I am having problems transmitting on RTTY using the built in facilities of the K3 with the K3 Utility program and am using AFSK. Decoding works perfectly with the terminal program but the transmit messages when keyed do not result in any action by my K3. I have done this operation previously but now something is wrong. The PC is only used for the K3 Utility and for this operation the terminal facility of the Utility program is being utilized. I have tried tx with two K3s and two PCs but no joy. Some basic setting is wrong and I am flummoxed can someone point me to a solution. Humbly yours Doug EI2CN ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
