Re: [Elecraft] Macro for setup of K3S for WSJT

As to bandwidth for RX, since the transmit data is limited in bandwidth to the SSB bandwidth, I see no need to have the receiver BW any wider than the TX bandwidth.  Also, the RX low end likely doesn't need to be any lower than the TX bandwidth low end roll off.  Of course if you have SPLIT

Dick, While it is true that the input *can* be Line In for DATA A - it is not the default (like on a Factory new K3 or K3S, when you first go to DATA A mode you must use the MIC SEL to set it to LINE. After doing that, it will be 'sticky'. FT8 uses a very wide bandwidth (if available), and

Bill, Thanks for info; you know, I did not know about switching to Data A switches the input to line in. I have a AM filter, but am not sure with band with FT8 uses, what advantage a wider filter  than the stock SSB filter has. Dick,  K8ZTT  Sent from Yahoo Mail ohave an Android On Tue,

I find that WSJT and the radio configured for DATA does not need any macro to accomplish this feat. 73 Bob, K4TAX On 12/12/2017 10:58 PM, RIchard Williams via Elecraft wrote: Before I beat my head against the wall (or re-invent the wheel); does someone have a micro to setup the K3S (or K3)

My experience is that if you set wsjt-x to use rig control, just starting to monitor does most of the work. I end up in Data-A mode. This automatically sets the mic sel to Link In. I already have a macro to open up the bandwidth, which automatically sets the filter to my FM filter. My macro

Before I beat my head against the wall (or re-invent the wheel); does someone have a micro to setup the K3S (or K3) for WSJT-X.  What I am looking for is:  1.  Set the mode to TX Data 2.  Set mic sel to Line In 3.  Set the filter to FL2 (2.7 KHz in my case) 4.  Open up the pass band width to max
