Hi Everyone,
I just bought a K3 a few weeks ago and have been using it on CW. It's time to play with it a bit on RTTY. I'm using the Tigetronics Signalink to interface the radio to my PC which is running MMTTY. When I have the mode switch in the sideband position, copy on the laptop is just fine and the signals display properly on the tuning aids in MMTTY. I read the manual pages about better performance if the DATA mode is selected. I switched to the DATA mode and there is very little audio in the speaker and no signals displayed on the tuning aids in MMTTY. No copy either. I double-checked the data mode setting and it is AFSK-A which I think is correct. I must have a setting wrong somewhere. I've gone over the data section in the manual a few more times but don't see what I'm doing wrong. Any ideas?
Thanks and 73,
