Max, all I've really used for RTTY has been FSK, using my MKII as the interface. I'm sold on the fact that the signal is probably cleaner. With my new KIO3B board I was hoping to get to a single-cable interface to greatly simplify my setup. At least, I thought I remembered reading that this was possible in Elecraft literature. I was really sick of the rats-nest of wires behind my K3. While I love the K3, sometimes I wonder if a Flex would be less hassle overall simply due to the simpler interface.
I'm skeptical anyone has made RTTY with without some kind of addition interface beyond a simple USB cable since ASFK-A keying with VOX appears broken. Other digital modes shouldn't be a problem since DATA-A works. One of my friends, N7US, has been suggesting the MORTTY solution. Yet another interface. Sheesh. Why can't it just be all built into the K3? There's probably a good technical reason. I'm a EE who works on transmitters professionally but don't know the nuances of USB interface. I guess it must be hard to make it work. Or perhaps it's a limitation of how the K3/K3s is architected. It would be nice once the lockdown in CA is over, if one of the Elecraft people could chime in on this. BTW I'm about 1/2 thru your FSK video. Very informative. Thanks for putting it together. If I get an MORTTY I'll be sure to watch your other video.
