Just spitballing what I'd check: Have you checked all the computer-side settings? There's output attenuation in the app, per-app output volume (on some operating systems), and master output volume.
If it can be toggled or there are separate jacks, are you using headphones or line-out? Have you tried the other? If you've got an audio interface with a hardware output gain knob, have you checked the settings on that? Have you checked the cables and connections, and perhaps tried another cable? If you're using SSB instead of DATA mode, have you checked the COMP and TX EQ settings? (DATA mode avoids this problem.) Have you tried transmitting some other computer audio, like a plain sine wave of good volume? This would isolate the app, output attentuation, or per-app volume. Have you tried transmitting some plain mic audio in the same mode? This would isolate the app, computer, or interface. 73, Julie On Sun, Jun 20, 2021, 13:10 <[email protected]> wrote: > > > My K3S occasionally does not put out any power when transmitting FT8.
