I'm wondering if there is a way to escape the 4-5 second gradual
increase (ramp up) of audio drive when in DATA-A mode on the K3? I
run WSJT on DATA-A and every transmit sequence starts at about 50%
power out due to the audio drive ramp up. It takes the K3 about 4-5
seconds to reach full
Hi Ed,
1) Make sure you have 4-5 bars on the ALC meter when transmitting your
JT65 signal - insufficient audio drive could lead to the DSP
compensating by adding gain
2) Run through the TX gain calibration (see K3 Owner's Manual)

Ed,
Are you driving the audio to give you 4 bars solid and the 5th blinking
on the ALC meter?
The behavior you are seeing is normal if you do not have enough audio.
The lower 4 bars of the ALC meter do not indicate ALC, they are similar
to a VU meter.
The 5th bar indicates the onset of ALC.

Last IOTA contest I had connected my Pro Set Plus to the rear panel like I
always do. For some reason to volume was much lower than usual. Normally I
have the volume knob set al 10 o'clock. Now I had to set it at 1 o'clock to
get the same audio level.
I could not find out what had happened and
I'll add my voice to that as well. Please add that capability to increase
the volume on the earphones.

This works! 4 shots of !66; did the trick! Hope the Elecraft team can add
that to the config menu soon!
Thanks!!

I would like to see this added to the Config Menu. I have low volume on
headphones, and a few doses of this command fixes it. I was going to contact
Elecraft support about it, but now I will wait for it to be added.
