[Elecraft] K3s Fldigi and Mac

[Don Wilhelm]

You can use VOX instead of PTT - and it is apparently working for you 
right now.
With soundcard data modes, there is no harm in using VOX (unless you 
have MIC + LINE set in the menu - and you should not).
There is no way you will start transmitting because of room sounds. The 
only thing to watch out for is that the USB Audio Codec for the K3S is 
not defined as the default soundcard for the operating system - if it 
is, you will get "computer sounds" being transmitted on the data mode 
portions of the bands, and that is not good for retention of your 
license or the ire of fellow hams.
