[Elecraft] Free DV (digital voice as reported in QST-April issue)

[Eric Lanzl]

I am wondering how to set up the k3 for the Free DV (digital voice) the article 
in QST about a way to do digital voice on hf. Has anyone tried it with the k3? 
Would one set the k3 to the DATA A position? How does one set the audio on the 
computer sound card? I am very new to the digital modes and do not fully 
understand what the settings mean. Can someone run through how to set the k3 for 
Free DV. I think you also have to set the line out setting in the config menu 
and hook up the line in line out cables to the computer. Can one use a regular 
computer mic and headphones. I know the Free DV article calls for a USB headset. 
I have a headset but not a usb headset. It uses the mic and speaker jacks on the 
computer. Will this work as well as the usb headset?

Thank you very much
Eric
