[Elecraft] Help setting up digital

[Don Wilhelm]

Terry,

Open the soundcard controls for the USB CODEC in your computer and 
increase the "Speaker" or Line Out slider.

This is the "NO ALC" point for these Elecraft transceivers - the first 4 bars are present to allow you to properly adjust the audio.  Once adjusted, you should not have to change it unless something changes it in the computer.">

> Thanks for the particularly timely  reply, Don.  I spent the past weekend trying to get my K3S set up for RTTY with MMTTY.  My old K3 (474) worked just fine for years.  Using Data A, AFSK, 45 baud, I can cleanly copy RTTY and Transmit via VOX, but, for the life of me, I cannot get the ALC set to "4 bars solid with the 5th bar flashing".  I can get it to set to 3 bars solid or 5 bars solid but nothing in between, no matter how sensitive I try to be.  Seems I recall someone else with this exact issue on her a few weeks ago.  I have spent this morning trying to find that post as I'm pretty sure his problem was solved.  I am setting the ALC via the Mic (Line) Gain.  I checked that Data A had reduced Compression to ZERO and TX EQ flat.  Any suggestions?
