Andy,
I did not see any response on the reflector, so I will try.
First of all, you need a soundcard. If you have installed the KIO3B in
that K3, there is an internal soundcard in the K3 that can e used.
If the KIO3 has not been upgraded, you will need a soundcard external to
the K3. Either
I've really been enjoying my new used K3. I installed the KPA3A in it and have
been very active on the CW bands.
My question is this. I can't get psk 31 to work in my HRD...either in
conjunction with Win4k3 or by itself. It works fine with Win4K3 by itself but I

Dwight,
I don't have experience with Remote Rig, and Brandon's suggestions usurp
mine. One thing I know is that if you are using USB mode instead of
DATA A, you will have to set compression to zero and set the TX EQ to
flat. Failure to do that will result in distorted data transmissions.
Dwight,
You have the audio level set correctly if you are getting 4 bars on the
ALC meter with the 5th one flickering at times.
Are you using DATA A mode? If you are using USB mode, you must manually
turn off compression and set the equalizer flat. Using DATA A does that
automatically.
I'm using a new K3/0 mini and the remoteRig boxes to remote my K3.
I'm getting reports of my PSK looking like I'm over driving it.
I have my laptop soundcard level set down to 10 as recommended by
Brandon. When xmtg I set the ALC level to 4 with 5th flickering or even
just 4. If I go any

If MMTTY can bring the FSK as a digital signal which can be fed into the

Arie,
I assume you are asking whether it is possible to use the RS232 port to
send FSK RTTY in FSK D. If so, the answer is yes. Below are three
theoretically possible methods - only the third one works, and only from
a limited selection of software, but it is possible.
The K3 does not accept
Thanks Rich, clear answer.
Well...
The idea was to use LP bridge.
Send the RTTY keying via a com-port from MMTTY, and control the rest of
the K3 via another com with N1MM logger. Since there's only one cable to
the K3, all signals should run over the same cable, just like the
combination of
Arie,
You will have to ask Larry Phipps if that MMTTY stream is implemented in
LP-Bridge.
RTTY via DTR is possible, but would require the one transistor keying
circuit to drive the PTT-IN pin on the K3s ACC connector. Of course,
LP-Bridge may or may not support DTR through its interface.
The MMTTY/EXTFSK combination can use DTR on a serial port for FSK
keying, but I have no idea whether EXTFSK would work through LP-Bridge.
Without EXTFSK, MMTTY uses TxD for FSK keying, not DTR, and that cannot
be shared with radio control.
If you are already using MMTTY, by any chance does

I am trying to set up my computer, etc to use HRD, DM780, and my K3.
I can tune around and receive and decode psk and rtty just fine with DM780,
but when I go to send, it goes in to transmit but has no power out.
My first guess is there is no modulation, but how can I verify?

Mike,
In answer to your question, you can tell whether there is modulation or
not by using the K3's Monitor function (the MON level must of course be
above zero for this to work).
As for the answer to the question you didn't ask, one possible explanation
for the lack of modulation is that your

I used the paddles to generate PSK.

complicated because of the variety of computer soundcards that could be

Ron,
I would suggest that you reduce the soundcard output level and increase
the K3 line in setting for smoother control of the audio level. I run
my K3 line in at 12 to 13 and adjust the soundcard level to achieve the
proper number of ALC bars (4) - my soundcard controls are at the
Bruce,
I don't know what software you are using on the K2/K3, but most software that I
have used allows you to select 'PTT Via CAT Command' on the serial RS232 input

configuration.
