You can eliminate this problem in the future by just leaving it on LINE
IN all the time. Of course, that makes phone hard but it works for me. 😉

Aargh! Aargh! Aargh! (Sound of head banging on desk.)
The problem was that I did not have the K3s set to use the line input!
I.e., MAIN:MIC SEL menu entry was not set to LINE IN.
I feel stupid for overlooking this setting, but honestly I don't
remember doing it in the past when setting up for other RTTY contests,
or switching back to MIC afterward. I need to check MMTTY and N1MM to
see if either sends any commands to the K3 to do this automatically.
To make matters worse, I have a text document that shows connections
and settings for the K3, but it didn't mention the MIC SEL menu entry;
it only said to set the MIC (line) level. I completely missed the
implied line input selection. You can bet that is now fixed!
So, problem solved. THANK YOU to everyone who offered suggestions here
and via private email. I hope I can avoid this embarrassing situation
in the future.
