I was able to turn off logging software mode send so I can use Data A or I could use AFSK with rev. Also it’s possible to change K3 to USB AFSK. it’s not a K3 problem but I thought others might have the issue.  Took me a few hours to sort out It all out.
I might have more info tomorrow.  I need to play with log software rig control config.
