[Elecraft] [K3] RTTY Setup: Solutions

Here are the solutions to my questions:
1. FSK/AFSK Mode - The solution was to set the RTTY mode in N1MM to AFSK

2. Intermittent failure to go to receive after transmit: There are at 
least three ways to setup the K3 and N1MM for RTTY AFSK PTT:
     a. Use Serial RTS for PTT
     b. Use "PTT via Radio Command Digital Mode"
     c. Use VOX
Note that you cannot use more than one of these at a time. FWIW, my RTTY 
N1MM macros do have {RX} at the end of each line.
The first two did not solve my problem -- I still failed to return to RX 
about a third of the time; however, VOX appears to have fixed the 
problem. I wish I knew why the first two don't work.

This is probably applicable to WSJTx PTT, too.

Thanks to those who replied,
