Thanks Don so it seems I was doing the right thing I did start with MMVARI then went to MMTTY both AFSK A I misspoke in the original post saying DATA-A but meant AFSK-A so it seems I am on the right track I find tuning with the VFO and watching the markers on the P3 the easiest I dont like tuning with the mouse.

David,

Actually, MMTTY and data sub-mode AFSK-A on the K3 will give you the best transmitter IMD. With MMTTY, you would tune with the K3 VFO rather than clicking on a waterfall display - this is a computer soundcard application of MMTTY.

If you prefer to click on a waterfall display, then an application other than MMTTY should be used.

Yes, you can do FSK-D with MMTTY, and that requires a "one transistor interface" to drive the K3 ACC connector pin 1. Some prefer that approach because it avoids setting the soundcard levels correctly for transmit. The choice is yours to make.

I have dabbled a bit with RTTY mostly with the Centenial and some DX but this past weekend I thought Ill give the CQWW-RTTY a try. spent a little time and got things working using N1MM and MMVARI using DATA-A relying on the P3 for waterfall display. It seems I got bitten by the RTTY contest bug because I loved it. So here is the question to the serious RTTY contester. what is the ideal setup. is MMTTY and DATA-A best or should I interface for fsk. and is MMTTY the best option here? and more important what is the best way to do this both from software and hardware setup.
