[Elecraft] PSK31 on K-3

[Iain MacDonnell - N6ML]

Well then the manual (admittly not the latest version) that I have is
wrong.

Someone should fix the manual then, cos it says (page 31):

> PSK D is a Direct-transmit mode for PSK31. 
> It’s the only mode that decodes and displays 
> PSK31 signals with the text decoder (pg. 33). 
> Like FSK D, PSK D lets you transmit via 
> FSK IN, ASCII, or the keyer paddle (pg. 34). 
> You can also use auto-spot with PSK D if the 
> tuning aid is displayed (CWT, pg. 34).
