[Elecraft] KX3/fldigi/USB sound card

[Walter Underwood]

The mic plug is shorting the extra contacts on the mic jack. These are used for PTT and for Up/Down.

You can disable that in the menus with MIC BTN OFF.

Or, you can use a stereo to mono splitter cable. The mic plug would go into the right channel. The left can be used for PTT.
