[Elecraft] K3s Operator frustrations

2016-02-13 Thread Jerry Moore 
I'm dialing around and hear what sounds like RTTY. My K3S is showing the
text being received with ease.
Problem: I can't get anything intelligible to show in my software. I'm using
FLDIGI under unix (raspberry pi running debian..rocks).
How do I figure out what mode is being used? Is there a way for the K3s to
tell me or the software what it's decoding?

It's pretty humbling when the gear is smarter than the op.. 
Tnx in adv es AE4PB ..

Are you using Data A or Data D?

I'm not sure what that means. 
I'm in Data mode on the K3S, the display correctly shows the text, 
FLDIGI is in RTTY 45 and the water fall is bracketed over the received
signals..
Apparently there's a contest underway.

Which DATA sub-mode?  If you are using the K3's internal decoder for
RTTY, it's probably AFSK A.  AFSK A is a *lower sideband* mode while
fldigi is brain dead and will only work with *upper sideband* signals
for most modes.  fldigi can be "faked" into working with LSB on AFSK
by clicking the "Rv" (reverse) button but that may not work for other
modes.

Jerry,

I highly recommend referring to this page for assistance in identifying
what you see in the waterfall display as well as what you hear from your
speaker.

Good luck with your new learning experience!
