[Elecraft] K3-PSK/RTTY Question

[John Ragle]

Steve...

     Although some argue that adjuncts like the SignaLink are not 
needed. I have used SignaLinks on a K2, an ICOM 910H, and now my 
K3/100+P3. I am very pleased with the way in which it gives me that 
extra little degree of control, and in particular in the way in which it 
enhances FLDIGI/FLRIG for both RTTYand PSK of all speeds. For $67 it has 
been worth every nickel of the price, especially vis-a-vis the costs of 
the other parts of my HF station.

     I run FLDIGI/FLRIG and the screen-captured P3 screen on one of my 
two monitors, which leaves the other one free for any other need. On the 
various PSK speeds, I run at 25 watts on the K3, and on RTTY I move the 
output up to 75-80 watts. If I want to run CW, I just shut down FLDIGI 
(it is not a sterling performer on CW) and run without a decoder. Even 
on my forays into SSB (usually on VHF or UHF, where I run >350 watts) I 
leave FLRIG running, as it gives very nice semi-remote access to many of 
the K3 parameters, but that has little to do with the "issue" of using a 
SignaLink.
