Once things are set up in the menu - - There should be no need to change 
menu settings when changing from SSB to data modes, just change the mode 
and all should be set.
Set the mode to SSB for voice operation and change to DATA A to use 
soundcard audio for PSK or AFSK A for RTTY.

That is true unless you are feeding the soundcard into the front or rear 
mic jack instead of using the Line-in and Line-out jacks on the rear of 
the K3.  By using the line in/out jacks, there is no cable plugging nor 
menu changes requires, just change the mode on the K3 and the menu 
settings should follow.

If you are trying to use SSB mode when operating data, then you will 
have to make menu changes, but the K3 has provisions for a separate DATA 
mode which makes operation seamless.
