Thanks for the response.

I have found a number of confusing issues with the DATA A filters. I report them to k3support, and eventually they will get fixed. (Some have already.) If you have reproduceable cases, you can write down the details and send them in.
I turned these in and the "Line In" problem. Elecraft acknowledged digital problems. Communication seems difficult on these issues. The "Line In" got fixed but the rest are waiting for attention. The "CWT kills digital TX" is the only new factoid.
In the lates release, it seems you can avoid the 1KHz Fc in DATA A by using low/hi instead of center/width.
I don't have any problems with Data Mode A, except that Dual PB stops all receive signals. The 1 KHz problem I see is on INPUT to the line in in AFSK mode. It appears that the mode only accepts audio in at around 1 KHz.
On the laptop trigger mode, you might try setting VOX. With RTTY done as AFSK, the duty cycle is 100% and I would think that VOX, if they allow it, would work fine. I have heard incidental reports that VOX works in PSK mode which has a 50% duty cycle for its idle tone, and higher for data.
The problem is not in triggering, but in sending FSK RTTY mark and space. FSK D mode seems to be the only mode that can use Dual PB. That mode does not accept audio in. You must either send text with the KY command, key morse code or connect a PC’s I/O line to the “FSK IN” line on the K3’s AUX I/O connector. (If this signal originates from an RS232 port, it will require RS232-to-TTL level conversion.)

I was hoping that Simon would add keyboard RTTY in addition to keyboard CW to DM780.
