Hi Bob,

There would be some disadvantages to sending the RTTY / PSK via the KY 
command, I honestly think that an external program such as DigiPan, 
WinWarbler etc. would be a better option. Displaying the text decoded by K3 
is another matter.

FWIW I don't really have time to add this now, I am trying to get some new 
analogue SSTV code working before Christmas. If I can send and receive SSTV 
then I know that January and most of February will be taken up with the 
supporting software for SSTV such as picture archives, QSL card templates, 
fancy drawing software and the like.

Maybe next year I'll have a better idea for getting the K3 to send RTTY / 
PSK, but I'll need to be convinced :-)
