[Elecraft] K3s can only transmit wsjt if the K3s codec is windows default.

[Bob McGraw K4TAX]

Are you saying the K3S does not go into the transmit mode, or are you 
saying there is no audio?

 From the K3S CONFIG menu you should have RS232 set to USB.  The K3S 
Menu should have MIC SEL set to Line IN.  Is anything plugged into the 
Line In on the back of the radio?   Unplug it if  so. The radio Data MD 
should be set to DATA A.

With the F2 Setup Menu of WSJT-X  the Radio pane: Data Bits as 8, Stop 
bit as 1 and Handshake as NONE.   PTT Method as CAT, Mode as Data/Pkt, 
Split operation as RIG.    On the Audio pane:  Soundcard both Input and 
Output should be USB Audio CODEC and Mono.

This is my configuration.
