[Elecraft] PTT KEY CONFIG setting volatile?

[Gene Gabry]

Same thing happens here with K3S SN 10057. I have no digital SW running or rig control at the time of power down. If I set PTT to DTR and power down for some period of time, PTT defaults back to OFF when power up. Always done that since day one. I thought there was some update done in latest firmware to PTT-KEY line to default those to OFF so when PC was restarted K3S would not go into TX?

WSJT not running – K3S not connected to PC.  I still need to reset PTT-KEY after a power cycle – it always goes back to OFF-OFF.  The same thing happens in USB or DATA modes.

Danny,

Do a test without WSJT running.  Set PTT key config to DTR - OFF, then cycle power on the K3S.  Does that setting survive the power cycle?  If so, it is not a K3S problem, look to the WSJT software for the solution.
If it does not survive the power cycle, contact K3Support.
