If the K3 is sending a steady carrier, by far the most likely explanation is that it is in FSK D instead of AFSK A.
The data sub-mode is remembered per-band, so perhaps it is not set correctly on all bands. Another cause can be a logging program - for example, if you are using MMTTY from within N1MM+, you have to make sure that the Mode control setting for the mode sent to the radio is AFSK, not RTTY. RTTY in the mode control selector in N1MM+ means FSK, and it will cause the radio to be put into FSK D every time a QSY is commanded from N1MM+. A similar phenomenon can occur with other logging or digital mode programs. 73, Rich VE3KI AJ4F wrote: The problem we are having is intermittent transmission of data. At times the set up works properly and then later when transmitting the K3 sends only a steady carrier. It appears that the computer is outputting audio tones to the K3 when this situation occurs. What are the potential causes of this problem. Any suggestions will be appreciated. ______________________________________________________________ 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]
