[Elecraft] K3 and WSJT-X Split operation.

[Don Wilhelm]

Bob and all,

That is good advice, but what is missing is the fact that the "ALC" 
meter on the K3/K3S/KX3/KX2 indicates the onset of ALC at the 5th bar, 
so the 4 bars solid and the 5th bar flickering is the "NO ALC" point for 
those transceivers.  The first 4 bars are there to assist you in 
adjusting the audio level.  I don't know how many times we have to 
repeat that, but follow the instructions in the manual.
If you need a more complete explanation, go to my website www.w3fpr.com 
and scroll the left column down to the bottom article - click on the 
link to get the full information.

73,
Don W3FPR
