I run into this over and over with Windows 10, and I'm embarrassed to say I often don't know what makes the difference.  I use the microphone input and speakers output on an outboard USB sound card, and generally find myself just dinking around with the various sound settings until I find something that causes it to start working.  My suspicion is that Windows 10 update has a nasty habit of resetting audio arrangements to some arbitrary set of "defaults."

Don,
Tnx for the reminder on checking the audio on the ALC meter. It was so long since I had 
a problem I forgot about doing that. There was no audio shown on the K3. What happened 
is that in WSJT-X > Settings > Audio > Soundcard, The OUTPUT was no longer 
Speakers (USB Audio CODEC). Somehow it changed to SPEAKERS (Realtek High Definition 
Audio), which is my audio for my pc. Changed it to what it was supposed to be and now I 
am fine. I have no idea what changed the setting as I was working station after station 
when this happened.
Weird.

Tony,

Soundcard problem or K3 problem.  This is most commonly a problem with audio 
into the K3.

How many bars illuminate on the ALC meter?  It should be 4 with the 5th bar 
flashing.  If not, look at the audio levels.

See the article on my website www.w3fpr.com

Scratching my head. I was making Q's on FT8 with my K3 and WSJT-X,
v2.0.1 when I no longer would get power out.

WSJT is keying the K3 (Red transmit light is on) but no power out. The
K3 keys fine with power out in CW or other modes is fine. WSJT is
talking to the K3. WSJT shows the correct frequency, it is decoding
and when I go into Settings > Radio and hit Test CAT it goes green.
When I hit TUNE on WSJT it turns to red and the red TX light on the K3 comes 
on. But no power out.
