[Elecraft] K3 - AFSK RTTY

What would a contest be if everything always worked like it did the last 
time in the contest.

I use a minimalist RTTY setup:

2 stereo cables from LINE IN/OUT to LINE OUT/IN
AFSK-A with PTT from VOX
N1MM with one instance of MMTTY

Basically, it worked fine, made over 700 Q's.  At the urging of the 
club, I decided on the new SO Unlimited [i.e. assisted], and that worked 
OK too except:

Every time I clicked on a band map spot, the radio went to FSK-D, and of 
course wouldn't key.  I had the couple of usual N1MM lockouts and 
re-starting N1MM also caused this change to FSK-D.

I'm running 4.58 FW, haven't loaded new in a long time, and N1MM is 
running 13.10.2, also haven't updated that in quite awhile, both have 
been working very well.

I don't think this is a K3 problem, but wanted to check if anyone else 
using the minimalist configuration has seen this.
