I find HRD overly complicated so I don't use it, and cannot speak to how to set
it up.
I use a variant of MMTTY that is designed to interface with DXBase, my logging
program. MMTTY would be setup the same.
I use AFSK A and low tones, 915 Hz, and set up MMTTY accordingly. Make sure
whatever decoder you use is set to TX and RX using whatever tones you set the K3 to.
Turn off the dual filter, it's mostly useless and set your RX bandwidth to 400
Hz. Some folks want to use narrower BW, but there is little, if anything, to be
gained by this.
Worry about decoding the DX station. You don't care what the other guys are
sending. and trying to tune them to decode them is unnecessary. Here is where a
P3 or other bandscope shines over a second RX, all IMHO of course.
Wes N7WS 242 DXCC countries on RTTY all worked with a K3.

I was trying to work K3P on 80m RTTY last night (new mode for me) and was
struggling to understand the owner's manual. I don't fully understand how to
get the dual APF to display correctly and setup. At one point the K3S
appeared be decoding correctly sometimes as I would sometimes see his call
and 599. I rarely saw the correct station he was calling and didn't
consistently copy. I was never able to get HRD to copy any of it. I was in
Data mode and the CWT did show split tuning but I struggled to get the right
most set of bars to stay filled even after playing with the width/filter..
I'm sure this is just a learning process and I've tried several websites on
setting up for RTTY with no success. Anyone have a good guide on the K3/S
with/without HRD on RTTY?
Thanks in advance.
