To run WSJT modes wider than the K3 DSP permits (4-KHz) you can take
the 1st IF output to a SDR like the LP-Pan which can process 400-KHz
baseband. Of course the highest bw soundcards run 192-KHz so that is
another restriction.
I run MAP65 which can process 90-KHz of JT65 if sufficient bw is
available. Just about any SDR can convert the 8.215 MHz 1st IF of
the K3 to provide this. I use a emu0202 s/c to process the IQ
baseband from the LP-Pan (as an example).
If you are running a KX3 it offers baseband IQ directly (not sure
what the bw is as I have not tried my KX3 for WSJT).
One caveat: there seems to be two WSJT in use: those that run JT65
on HF and those who run JT65 on VHF+ (mainly for eme and ms). Some
of the modes are not compatible and will not decode signals generated
by the other "flavor" of WSJT. Specifically JT65-HF is not read by JT-65A.
I run WSJT only on 6m and higher bands using WSJT10 from Joe Taylor
(K1JT) who is the creator of WSJT.
