>> Hi Everyone,

>> I just bought a K3 a few weeks ago and have been using it on CW. It's

>> 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,
