[Elecraft] OT? K3s - WSJTX - MMTTY conundrum

Don & Wes,

I'm stymied by what caused the problem. 
Sometimes using N1MM with MMTTY there is a 
bit of software change and PTT-KEY change 
but never just running MMTTY alone with 
the K3s. When I went to N1MM it was with 
AFSK A and it was already in the data mode 
as my last 20M Q was with WSJTX. 
Everything seemed normal in every way 
except garbage was what was being sent to 
the screen. 

Finally I tried to have the K3s decipher 
by changing the DATA MD to FSK D. Now the 
K3 was not deciphering either. Based on a 
suggestion that mentioned on-off... I shut 
down WSJT and MMTTY and retried and it 
worked for decode on MMTTY. Why that would 
have an effect on the K3s decoding I have 
no idea. 

I'll revisit the issue later this week, 
there's a RTTY contest coming up but for 
now while things are working, I'll enjoy 
the air a bit & make a few more Qs. If I 
find out anything helpful, I'll post that 
here for anyone with the same issues, 
later.

73 and thanks,

Gary
