Afire calling folks on ten who were running as much as +12 on Fri and Sat - and no answer I called a friend across town - He sees the signal and it will not decode. While he was listening he worked two stations on10 so his setup is working (K3S and Signalink)
I hooked up my K3 - Signalink - and it will not decode the K3S tones -decodes band signals just fine . Makes no difference by band 80 or 10 the same and friend same on10 and 15 . BTW the K3S decodes on air signals just fine. This apparently happened in past week or so I do more listening than txing . Last FT8 qsos in log were 5 /10 . I uninstalled and re-installed WSJT -latest versions on both the K3 and K3S . No difference. I went to earlier K3S config file - no difference. Did an EEINT and still no difference-two different config files. Makes no difference 5 watts,20 watts ,50 watts out of K3S. ,or 450 watts out of KPA . (all into dummy load on both xcvrs.) Levels out of the computer are essentially same as always both rx and tx . Easy to get 4 bars ALC with 5th flickering . Tones in monitor sound clean and looking at the monitor audio on scope they are clean sine waves . The monitor signals look essentially the same on both the K3 and K3S. Tried looking at recovered audio tones both ways - they look pretty much the same but hard to tell dummy load to dummy load because of residual rx noise on the tones. Guess I could see if I could arrange to get more signal. Rig works on CW as always - dd not mess with SSB - Maybe I should look at two tone tomorrow -- or at least listen to it on SSB. I restored computer W10Pro 64 bit to several updates ago and no change. Rebooted computer - restarted programs . Clocks are within a tenth of a second. I am out of ideas -other than to change the K3S over to using the Signalink instead of the USB/internal codec. Guess I will do that later today since its 4 m. Nuts.
