Re: [Elecraft] K3S Line in not working.

A potential explanation: the LINE IN level may have defaulted to zero. The LINE IN level is adjusted using the MIC gain control, but only when MIC SEL is set to LINE. So, you need to set MIC SEL to LINE (which turns MIC+LIN off), adjust the MIC gain control to give the desired non-zero LINE IN lev

Jim, I have MIC+LIN set to off, I think so that the K3s doesn't pick up room noise when using data modes. Also, the mic level control on the front panel affects the line in level when you are in data a mode. In other modes, it is a mic level, instead. Hope that helps, -- Dave, N8SBE On 202

Clay; Not harsh at all. It's not that I was tired of waiting, but my working conditions here have changed greatly. I used to live on 80 acres, and no nearby neighbors, now I live in a duplex in the city and am relegated to just an HF9V vertical as my only antenna. I just considered that with

Hi Chuck - It's better if we do the Paypal refund from this end. We can do that today if you wish. Sales is being a bit conservative on the lead time for the Synths. It is probably closer to 6-8 a\weeks at this point and I'm trying to beat that. We finally have all the difficult to get long lead t

I have corresponded with Elecraft in the last few days about the updates I ordered last spring. I was told they have sourced most of the parts for the Synths and to expect delivery in 8 to 10 weeks. I cancelled my order, and am now fighting with paypal to get the money returned to me. 73 all,

Great that you have this resolved but unfortunate that it occurred after the ARRL RTTY Roundup. I use FSK for RTTY transmission which so far has been very simple and stable. GL John KK9A (W4AAA in 2022 RU) Mike Dodd N4CF wrote: That's what I remember, and after I set MIC SEL = Line In for RTT

I have had the built-in SUB sound card in my K3s working with MMTTY in AFSK A mode in the past, but now it does not produce TX tones when MMTTY transmits. MMTTY is set up to use the USB Audio Codec in RX and TX, and can decode RTTY signals. When I click the TX button, the K3s goes into transmi
