Keith,
See the post by Tom Hammond about an hour before your post.
Tom explains it pretty well I think.

Subject: RE: [Elecraft] VP6DX RTTY QSOs on the K3 -- without
a computer
I'm absolutely clueless when it comes to RTTY (call me a
RTTY-iot :-).
When doing RTTY the old fashioned way (with a teletype
machine) how fast
are chars sent? I'm assuming they are sent at the
operator's typing
speed. With a computer, are RTTY messages buffered and sent
in a burst
when the OP hits send or are they sent 1 char at a time?
If a person generates RTTY from the K3's keyer at 20 wpm is
the RTTY
going to look odd to the receiver because of excessive
inter-char gaps
or are those gaps rather common since many of us type slower
than 60
wpm?

The 'baud rate' is always that user for RTTY( 45.45 bauds),
BUT the RATE
at which the characters are actually SENT depends upon how
fast you can
send them to the K3 using the internal keyer...
