[Elecraft] K3: Question about data modes...

[David Cole]

Hi Joe,
I was thinking that as well, but MixW is using USB.  As a test I
reversed the sideband by pressing the mode until I saw REV pop up.  I
would have expected that to correct the issue if the software were on
the wrong sideband, but it just makes it fail the opposite
direction...  

My belief tells me that I should be able to reverse sideband on the
radio, and reverse sideband on the software and it should still work...
Is that a correct understanding?  What drives me nuts is that I have it
working for CW and RTTY, both use LSB...  I use DATA A for and USB on
the radio for JT65 and that works.  My only issue is with PSK...  Maybe
because PSK works in USB or LSB the software, (MixW), defaults to LSB,
no matter how it is set.
