Eric,
Make sure you are using 45 bps press and hold for 2 seconds the AFX(DATA
MD) button and adjust VFO A knob. Mark Space is set to 2125 - 170 using
SPOT Button held in for a few seconds. Threshold is not critical mine is
set to 3 and ON by holding in the Text Decode button for a few seconds.
Back off on the RF gain to get rid of the extraneous noise characters and
fine tune at 1 Hz or 10 Hz maximum. You should see the signal start to
decode. I very much like to use the Elecraft Utility Monitor with stored
messages and a good big screen to display plenty of data.
I just worked them on 14.089.92. Good luck.

Subject: [Elecraft] K3 need help with FSK-D
Dear Gang:
I am trying to chase down a last TX5K contact on RTTY and cannot get FSK-D
mode to work on my K3. I followed the steps in the manual, and have been
trying various THR levels in DECODE, but all I get are random letters even
with what looks like a strong signal ( peaking 3 bars on each side). I must
be missing something simple--any ideas?
Thanks,
Eric WD6DBM
