Kevin, I do find the Serial Port for the K3S as COM7, and also have a ASUS Xonar U7 external card on COM3, running through a LP-PAN2 I'm also working to configure. That's a somewhat separate topic.
I have several sound cards, it seems. My Windows 10 PC Device Manager lists: High Definition Audio Device NVIDA High Definition Audio Device (from a G-Force audio/video card, 4 separate lines in Device Manager) NVIDA Virtual Audio Device (that NVIDA card again) USB Audio CODEC (likely the K3S) Xonar U7 (an external card) At present, my default devices are: Playback - Headphones Xonar U7 Recording - Line Xonar U7 I see the USB Audio CODEC as, not default, but "Ready" under: Playback - Speakers 3 - USB Audio CODEC Recording - Microphone 3 - USB Audio CODEC When WSJT-X/WSPR-2 Mode is TXing (both the full 2min WSPR-2 mode TX and the short 2-3sec tune-up TX tone), I see some bars turn green to the right of the Playback - Speakers 3 - USB Audio CODEC entry, suggesting the the K3S card is enabled, despite the Xonar U7 setting as default. As Don suggests, I went to the K3S Playback - Speakers 3 - USB Audio CODEC and saw the Level was 100%, so I cut that back to 20%, which gives ALC 4 bars with flickering 5 bars. Advanced Tab shows format to be 16 bit, 44100 Hz (CD Quality). Unlike the Xonar U7 card, there is no 192 KHz option. For the K3S Recording - Microphone 3 - USB Audio CODEC I have that set at 50%. That slider and the WSJT-X slider for digital gain are interactive. I can set the max on the PC and back it down on the app, or lower on the PC and bump it up on the app. Unlike when I was using a FT-897D, the short 2-3sec TUNE tone between band hops doesn't trigger the ATU when set to AUTO (I'm running 5.0W). Nor is the ATU triggered when in the 2min WSPR-2 mode TX cycle. With WSJT-X TX, the K3S red TX LED lighs, and now I see ALC bars, but no power indication as when pressing the K3S TUNE button. But I my WSPR-2 mode TX is being heard and logged in WSPRnet (N4SRN) so there is RF power out. -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/WSJT-X-and-K3S-Tx-tp7622439p7622619.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
