The choice is NOT rig-specific.  MMTTY is most popular with contesters 
and DXers. Many add a second decoder called 2Tone. For contest 
operation, nearly all RTTY operators use either N1MM Plus or WriteLog, 
both of which make it easy to use both software at the same time.

For casual operation and DXing, I use WinWarbler, which is sort of a 
"wrapper" for MMTTY and 2Tone.

We use more than one decoder because even the best of decoders (and 
these two are quite good) will sometimes fail to decode a signal while 
the other will.

I use AFSK and VOX. Your computer should connect to the Line In and Line 
Out jacks of the K3.
