[Elecraft] Lots of RTTY activity right now -- great time to try FSK-D mode on your K3/K3S/KX3

FSK-D mode is perfect for casually dropping in on RTTY contests. 

To receive RTTY directly on the VFO B display:

   1. Tap DATA
   2. Rotate VFO B to select FSK-D
   3. Tap any switch to exit DATA setup
   4. Hold TEXT DEC to turn on text decode
   5. If you were using DISP to look at supply voltage, etc.,
      that will override text decode, so tap DISP to exit

Then just tune in RTTY signals and watch the decoded text scroll by.

To transmit, you can use either a keyer paddle attached directly to the radio, or a keyboard attached to a PX3 or P3, or use your PC keyboard from within K3 Utility or KX3 Utility.

Happy hunting!
