[Elecraft] XG3 Tones?

[Paul Saffren N6HZ]

Hi David, 

The XG3 generates a square wave RF signal and has no internal audio tone
generator.  RTTY is accomplished through frequency shift keying (FSK) which
does not require a modulation 'tone'.   At one time I investigated the
possibility of doing FM in the XG3 but the problem is in the phase lock time
within the frequency synthesizer chip we are using.  It takes too long to
achieve lock for FM or PM. 

73, 

Paul
