That makes a lot of sense, Dave.  Two PTT types active at the same time is something that never occurred to me.  Except there's no PTT cable from the SignaLink, as far as I can tell. But Greg AB7R suggested that I update WSJT-X, which seems to have fixed the problem.  I'm still puzzled as to why it started suddenly, after several months with no problem.

If using CAT for PTT, make sure the PTT cable from the Signallink is NOT connected to the radio. Having two separate PTT types active at the same time will cause behavior like you described.

    TEST CAT on PC turns green.
    TEST PTT on PC turns red and turns on the KX3  TX LED.  It looks
    like if
    I change to VOX the problem goes away, but I've always used CAT in
    the past.

    Signalinnk PTT LED turns on with TX.
