It's been quite a few years since I used MixW, but here goes:
1. Last time I tried it, MixW did not understand the K3's digital sub-modes. Basically it acted as if they were all the same (either FSK D or AFSK A), i.e. on LSB. Even when I put the rig in DATA A, MixW still acted as though the radio was in LSB.
2. If the waterfall is in Auto mode, MixW recognizes when the rig is in REV, and automatically adjusts its sideband to accommodate the switch. In other words, if it was on the wrong sideband without REV, after entering REV MixW automatically changes its sideband so it will still be on the wrong sideband. The solution to this is to take MixW out of Auto mode and force the waterfall to be in USB regardless of whether the radio is in REV or not.
3. One other problem is the frequency offset: in FSK D and AFSK A , the K3's dial displays the Mark frequency, whereas in DATA A it displays the suppressed carrier frequency. Therefore you may need to supply a frequency offset to get MixW to display the correct frequency.
My recollection was that I was able to configure MixW either to work correctly in AFSK A/FSK D, or in DATA A, but not in both, at least not without making configuration changes when I changed data sub-modes. I have no idea whether the current version is any different, but your experience suggests that it may still have this problem.

My belief tells me that I should be able to reverse sideband on the radio, and reverse sideband on the software and it should still work... Is that a correct understanding?
