[Elecraft] P3SVGA data RTTY FSK D

[Adrian]

That's great Jim, I have not set up macro's etc yet, however with Eric's
advice re not running K3Util at the same time, I feel I can progress
further.
 Will be on the band (20m) today as have a day off (Monday here now) Hope to
work some K3's out there and maybe a P3SVGA data setup.

I use vox and sometimes the keyboard RTTY send print report from rxer was
not so good. Did you use vox (keyboard send setup) Jim?

Will be on RTTY around 14086 or thereabouts later.

	I had the opportunity to spend a couple of hours on the TARA Grid
Dip contest Saturday. I choose to work RTTY with the P3SVGA and FSK D. What
a hoot!  Everything worked as it should. Each new contact went better than
the previous one. I had quickly put in a couple of text messages for the
contest and they proved to be adequate. 

	I have divided the 50 Text message capability into 4 groups CW (12)
PSK31(12) RTTY (12) and an auxillary group of 12. They are accessed as F1
thru F12 (CW), <SHIFT> F1 thru <SHIFT> F12 (PSK31), <ALT> F1 thru <ALT> F12
(RTTY), and the aux group, <CTRL> F1 thru <CTRL> F12.  Each function key
carries basically the same message, just "personalized"  for the particular
mode, so other than remembering the correct pre-key, F! is always "CQ". etc.
For the contest I used the aux group, <ALT> Function Keyes personalized for
the Grid Dip.

	To make a long story short, this scheme has worked well for me on CW
and RTTY. I must admit tuning PSK31 has been a bit more of a trial but I
have made a few contacts. Clicking on the browser is a lot easier. :-))

Jim, W4ATK
