[Elecraft] K3 RTTY setup with MMTTY

[Dave Yarnes]

Hi Richard and All,

O.K.  Since I'm just getting into this digital stuff, I'm not afraid to ask 
a dumb question.   Does what you say mean that I cannot use Ham Radio 
Deluxe, plus its associated program digital master 780, to both control my 
K3, as well as send and receive digital modes like PSK31 or RTTY?  I think i 
can receive these modes with just the one serial port connection, but not 
sure about sending.
