[Elecraft] Using PSK 31 with my K3, and Ham Radio Deluxe

[Don Wilhelm]

Terry,

It is possible - recall that many interface boxes come plugged for mic 
level output which is not nearly enough to use at the K3 Line In.  Most 
of those interface boxes do make provision for increasing the level of 
the audio output.  Yes, it is something to be checked.

Does this sound normal?  Could it be the reason for someone like Bill (below) to not get power out with PSK31 on some bands but get it normal on others?
