[Elecraft] FSK problem with my K3

Jerry,

I just looked at the fldigi files on the web, and it appears that fldigi 
does not do FSK, but all its RTTY operation is in AFSK.  If that is the 
case, you will need to connect the soundcard to the line in and line out 
connectors on the K3 rather than connecting to the ACC connector pin 1.
See http://www.w1hkj.com/FldigiHelp/RTTYFSK.html for the source of my 
information it states that "All of the modem signals that fldigi 
produces are audio signals."

If you have implemented the circuit shown in 
http://www.w1hkj.com/FldigiHelp/PseudoFSK.html to produce Pseudo FSK, it 
does state that you may have to invert the sense of the keying signal.  
A second 2N2222 stage like the one shown should accomplish the inversion.
