Jim, I don’t think I gave bad advice, I said I wasn’t sure about RTTY, right? That’s an invitation for someone more knowledgeable to jump in.
But as you point out, RTTY is different from the other data modes, which use USB (actually DATA on the Upper Sideband). While factory defaults may be right on the K3, since it stores last used, it is often very easy to get it changed and not realize it. I know I had problems with a single band in digital and it turned out that that particular band was using the wrong sideband presumably due to my changing it at some point in the past. Also there is the issue with is the person using direct keying or AFSK which are different settings. fldigi would probably be using audio tones not direct keying although I think that’s possible. I am not an RTTY operator. Some digital modes operate upper or lower but I believe some must be upper. I think this is addressed on W1HKJ’s website.
