[Elecraft] K3 and JT65

[Mike K2MK]

Hi Jim,

I don't recall there ever being a mod for line out level. You might be
thinking of the mod to increase the IF output for the P3.

In your case, in addition to adjusting CONFIG:LIN OUT, be sure to check your
left/right balance on your PC input. I'm pretty sure that the signal will
only be present on the left channel. The SUB RX (if supplied and turned on)
comes out on the right channel. Also make sure you are using a stereo cable
and that it is fully inserted. Also, make sure your line out is held at a
constant level by setting CONFIG:LIN OUT to NOR and not PHONES. The "1"
button toggles between NOR and PHONES. Please read page 20 in the manual.

Last, and probably unlikely, make sure your PC is really utilizing the line
in. I remember a similar posting from a couple of years ago where the PC was
decoding only strong PSK and RTTY signals. The problem was that there was no
valid audio connection between the K3 and PC and the laptop PC in use was
merely picking up the stronger signals on its built-in microphone.

73,
