I am trying (and failing miserably) to set up my K3 to work PSK31 mode.

I am using a Microham USB Microkeyer II and my normal Logger 32 software 
which I have used for aged with my MP running very fb.

The outgoing tones from my K3 dont "sound right" and a near neighbour 
says my signal is very bad
unreadable and very broad.

In the K3,   I have the compression set to 0  the mike gain set to 0.  I 
am in Data mode   and using DATA MD have    PSK  D showing -  31 bps.....

My K3 ALC meter is still showing almost full ALC (according to the 
meter) with almost now poer output (turned right down).
I have the TX knob on my Microkeyer set at zero and within Logger 
soundcard - psk window, have the output set right back, well below the 
settings for the MP!

I am receiving PSK no problem at all.     The radio is connected to my 
computer via the serial port on the rear...

I can run RTTY FSK without any problem whatsoever.

I think i need a little guidance here...
