Bill,

Do you have anything plugged into the LINE IN jack on the K3S?  That 
overrides the output of the CODEC.

Have you adjusted the audio level to produce 4 bars with the 5th bar 
flashing on the ALC meter?  Yes, that is unique with Elecraft gear.

If you are not familiar with that requirement, refer to the article on 
my website www.w3fpr.com.  Scroll down to the bottom of the left column 
and click on the link to get to the page.  My article generalizes on the 
DATA mode application being used while explaining why the Elecraft gear 
is different than other transceivers.  Elecraft support has additional 
information that is more specific for several data mode applications 
should you find you need that.

If you are setting transmit via command, that should be the only method 
enabled - turn off PTT via any other means and turn off VOX.  Using two 
methods together may cause the K3/K3S to hang in transmit (because the 
two methods "fight" each other.

73,
Don W3FPR
