Re: [Elecraft] K3S fsk with usb

In contest mode, RUMlogNG (for the Macintosh) uses the cat commands (probably KY and TB) to send and receive RTTY (and CW and probably PSK). This places all timing responsibility on the K3 with no additional wires, boxes, or circuits. There are a couple of "features" which are somewhat

Brian, My first response would be "use AFSK". My second would be "use a TinyFSK for FSK". But in response to your question, if you really want to key FSK directly from a USB-to-serial adapter you can use the EXTFSK plugin in MMTTY (). This works with any

Rich, I seem to recall that the serial port needed for FSK generally cannot come from the run of the mill USB/RS232 converters. They can't operate at 45 baud/5 bit rate needed. See: http://aa5au.com/GettingStartedOnRtty.pdf This is old info and things may have changed. So what does a guy

To transmit FSK from N1MM+/MMTTY with a K3 or K3S, you need: (a) some kind of serial port-based keying interface; and (b) a cable from the keying interface to the 15-pin ACC port on the back of the K3/K3S (pin 1 is the FSK keying input). The serial port used for FSK keying by MMTTY must be a

Peter, You will have to gain access to the RS-232 DTR or RTS signals. If you do not have the P3, you can insert the RJ45 to serial port dongle and pick the signals from that connector. Although I have not tried it, I believe it will work. You will also need to use a "one transistor keying
