The data sub-mode is stored per band. In addition if you use M0-M9
as quick band change memories, the data sub-mode is stored/recalled
from those memories.
Joe,
The mode/submode are per band settings. If you did not have your Data
Mode set to AFSK-A fo all bands that you would be operating using AFSK,
then the results are as to be expected.
In other words, preset the mode and submode prior to a contest.

Wes is correct. Please make sure you check:
1. Baud rate on the K3 should be 45 (if that is what your software is
using)
2. If you have the mark freq set to 915 Hz (pitch) on the K3 then your
soundcard software for RTTY must also be 915 Hz.
