[Elecraft] [K3S] Soundcard levels

[Ken K6MR]

I’m not sure what the problem is.  I run my K3 line level at 3 on both radios.  You want the absolute minimum that will work so your sound card has maximum dynamic range.  I set the level so the baseline spectrum display in MMTTY is just visible.

I use FSK so I don’t know what the playback level should be.

Subject: [Elecraft] [K3S] Soundcard levels

The Windows recording and playback levels of the soundcard in my K3S seem to
both be very sensitive.  For RTTY, other digital modes, and voice messages I
have the level set at only 5 for recording and 18 for playback.



I have my LIN OUT in the K3S set to only 5 for RTTY reception (recording)
and to 14 for digital mode TX (playback).



Maybe I'm confused or misunderstanding the settings or maybe I missed a step
in setting up the radio.
