Paul,
Make a test connector from a DB15 connector - so you can manually short
between pin 1 and pin 5 - do not connect the Microham supplied cable.
Start the 'send' process, listen for the single tone, then short between
pin 1 and pin 5 - the tone should change. If it does, than the K3 is
OK, look for the problem in the Microham box or the cable.
If the tone does not change with that test, contact Elecraft support.

----------------------------------Paul,
Details on how you are connecting the DKII FSK output to the K3 please.
A quick perusal of the DKII information indicates to me that the FSK
output is from a computer COM port - which to me indicates that it is
RS-232 levels.
Those RS-232 levels must be converted to TTL levels by a "one transistor
keying circuit" and the output of that circuit applied to the K3 ACC
connector pin 1.
The fact that you have a single tone indicates to me that you do not
have anything connected to the K3 ACC connector that will pull pin 1 to
ground. That means that the K3 will generate the space tone, but there
is nothing to tell the K3 to change the tone to a mark tone.
