Mike,
Where is the "PWR" slider set in WSJT-X? The PWR slider is really the
audio output level and should be set to 100% *and left there* with the
K3/K3S. The audio input should be adjusted with the Line IN control
(Mic Gain encoder) for four to five bars of ALC and the power output
adjusted with the PWR encoder.
In general. my K3 is set to Line 20, the Windows Sound Mixer for
"Headset Earphone (microHAM CODEC)" is set to 70% and the TX pot
on MK II or DK II are set between 12:00 and 3:00 as needed to get
four bars of ALC on the K3/K3S with the fifth bar just flickering.
and Line (microHAM CODEC) in the Recording Panel as Default. Both
Levels are set to 75
Your Default Device (and Default Communications Device) in the Windows
Sound Control Panel -> Recording tab should be an input of the sound
card in your computer. "microHAM CODEC" should *NEVER* be used as a
default device for either Playback (transmit) or Recording (receive).
Please refer to the "Configuring microHAM CODEC" and "Setting Audio
Levels" section of the DK II Users Manual. Follow the "Setting Audio
Levels" procedure *exactly*. Do not proceed from one step to the next
until you obtain the results called for in the procedure.
Note: the K3/K3S overloads the mic gain control (uses it for both
mic and line levels). Line In can only be set when DATA_A or AFSK_A
is selected and MENU:MIC SEL=Line IN.
73,

Hi Joe:
Thanks for the info, that solved the problem of switching out of Data A
Mode into Voice, that part is working great. I have verified that I am
in Data A mode, and CMP control reads 0, Mic is reading Line 4, however
when I press the Tune button on WSJT-X the rig keys up, but no power
output. The rig's pwr is set for 27 watts, but no output on my external
Power Meter and if I change the Mic Control to Line 60 from Line 4 I get
power output but only to 3 bars max on the K3S ALC Meter and 27 watts on
the external meter.
FWIW, I am using WSJT-X Soundcard Input - Line (microHAM CODEC) , and
Soundcard Output - Headset Earphone (microHAM CODEC) and both are set to
Left.
And in Windows I am using Headset Earphone (microHAM CODEC) in the
Playback Panel, (Speakers is the Default device), and Line (microHAM
CODEC) in the Recording Panel as Default. Both Levels are set to 75
