Joe,

RTTY transmit and receive are both enabled on the K3. You need to turn it on however. Go to "digital mode", and then you need to set your K3 to RTTY by using both the "8" and "9" buttons on the keypad. Both are accessed by "holding" rather than just "tapping". On the "8" button you set it to "On" using VFO B's dial. You can set the threshold at any level, but zero is usually fine. Exit that menu with another "hold". On the "9" button you will select the method for decoding. Select the FSK D option. Exit that menu now with another "hold" Now if you just "tap" the "8" button you can turn on the "CWT" tuning indicator. You will see a small, inverted triangle on your display centered over the S meter line. As you tune across an RTTY signal you want to get to a point where you see (hopefully) 3 bars on each side of the triangle. At that point the K3 should display the RTTY being sent. The display will probably already being displaying characters before you get to that point, but it will be hash. Now you can also transmit RTTY if you wish, simply by sending CW using your paddle.

I've probably bastardized the explanation of this, but it's all in the manual.
