Note my query in square brackets.

I'm about to set up my K3 with my computer sound card for WSJT
(DATA A mode) operation. You seem to imply above that it is
necessary to retweak the Mic Gain / Line In control every time you
go from SSB to DATA A and vice-versa. I would think the setting
for Line In would be remembered for the DATA A mode, once set. Is
this not the case? Is it necessary to adjust either Line In or Mic
Gain when switching back and forth? I sure hope not...
