[Elecraft] KX3 Utility on Mac - Sound Card for DATA A - no output

[Thorpe, Jeffrey]

I tried following the directions in KE7X’s book (7.5.2) to try and get a handle on how all this works, but ran into an odd problem - the KX3 utility program doesn’t seem to put out any sound. I unplugged the cable from the headphone/line out jack on my Macbook Pro and it was completely silent. Didn’t matter if it was CW, RTTY or PSK31. I then tried it on Fldigi and that program would output sound just fine. If I disconnect the USB/RS232 cable, then the Utility program does nothing.

So, is there a known problem with the Utility on Mac, or am I likely doing something wrong?

(on another note, how do you search these archives without manually crawling through the monthly lists???)
