[Elecraft] K3 PSK no output

My computer software has a choice of waterfall bandwidth, 2K 
(from 400Hz to 2400Hz) or 4K (400Hz to 4400Hz). In both Data A 
and SSB I can adjust the DSP bandwidth up to 4200Hz on the high 
end which gives me most of the bandwidth of the 4K setting. Note 
that you will need a wider crystal filter than the 2.7KHz 
default to get the wider DSP bandwidths.

Most of the time I narrow the DSP bandwidth down to 100 to 250Hz 
for QSOs. It keeps strong stations from overloading my computer 
software input.

Don and Joe have described the advantages of Data A over SSB for data.

Cheers - Bill, AE6JV
