[Elecraft] PSK-31 Help

[Joe Subich, W4TV]

Mike, 

I used RigCAT for controlling the K3.  I'll send you 
my XML file but you will need to customize if for your 
ports, etc.   Configure radio control by: 
        Configure | Rig Control | RigCAT .... 
check the Use RigCAT box, Click Open and select the 
K3.XML file.  My K3 is on COM4 at 38400 and I use 
"toggle RTS for PTT" (set the K3's PTT-Key menu item 
to RTS-Off).  

My particular version of K3.XML expects the K3 to use 
DATA_A for the data modes (it's more generic for non- 
RTTY data modes). 

It's rather straightforward. 

Fldigi can also be used with Logger32 and/or DXLab Suite 
with gateway software by N2AMG to replace the need for 
RigCAT or HAMLib.  A forthcoming update of Fldigi includes 
improved interoperation with other logging software and 
N2AMG will have updated gateways for several loggers.   

73, 

   ... Joe, W4TV
