[Elecraft] K3 Software for RTTY

  Robert,

While the K3 has the capability to do RTTY (and CW and PSK31) from an 
ASCII text stream, there are few applications that support it.  K3 
Utility does it, but that is not a logger.

You will probably have to use the audio cables from the soundcard and 
use the AFSK A Data Mode.

Maybe someone else will know of a ham application which sends the ASCII 
data stream over the RS-232 connection.

Am I not reading it correctly or should I look at another program? Suggestions are welcome.
