Data Received on Mac Transmitted by K3S

New phenomenon. When I go to a website that can play a video (such as YouTube), and the video is played, something is transmitted by my K3S. Note: This is a new phenomenon. I have not knowingly changed any setting.

I would appreciate any suggestions.

Check your audio settings, under systems preferences.

Audio settings are Codec. But this not new. Codec is required to make WSJT-X work and have been set this way for months..

Re: Data Received on Mac Transmitted by K3S

In reply to this post by Devin Butterfield

Thanks Devin. Yes, when I switch from VOX to PTT on the K3S, the problem disappears.

But, what is puzzling is that this is a new phenomenon. I’ve had the VOX enabled all along.

Perhaps there is some other K3S setting that I have inadvertently enabled?

Re: Data Received on Mac Transmitted by K3S

In reply to this post by stengrevics

Do you hear the video through your computer speakers as well? If so, maybe
the K3S has VOX enabled and I'd just picking up the sound via the K3s
microphone.
If you DON'T hear the video from the computer, then it's likely that your
default sound device in Windows has been changed to be the audio codec for
the K3S.
What you probably want is for the default playback device in Windows to be
your computer's sound card, and only configure WSJT and any other ham
software to use the K3S audio codec.

In reply to this post by stengrevics

If your default audio device in Sound --> Playback is the sound card
associated with your radio then Windows sounds will be sent to your radio.

Your web browser should be respecting the default audio device.

Using a Mac here Dave.

The problem goes away if I switch from VOX to PTT on the K3S.

Re: Data Received on Mac Transmitted by K3S

In reply to this post by Kevin - K4VD

If you're running Windows 10, it might be the source of your problem. It
has a habit of changing the default audio device when it thinks it's trying
to "help" you.

My windows 10 PC has an internal sound adapter and I've always used an
external USB device for radio play. As soon as I unplug the speakers from
the internal card, Windows 10 decides that it's smarter than I am and
redirects the default audio device to my USB adapter. So I leave the
speakers plugged in to the PC, or even just an empty phone plug.

If there's a way to make Win10 stop doing this, I haven't found it yet and
would love to know.

Re: Data Received on Mac Transmitted by K3S

John,
Ok, Windows was a bad assumption on my part.
You established that the unwanted transmit was due to VOX. That could be
due to one of two issues:
A) the radio mic was picking up the sound coming from the computer
speakers, OR
B) the Mac is configured to send normal computer sounds to the K3s codec
instead of the Mac sound card

If it's A, then turning off VOX is the right dilation and you're all set.
If it's B, I'd suggest that you configure the Mac to send the default audio
to its own sound card, and configure WSJT, etc, to use the K3s codec.

Re: Data Received on Mac Transmitted by K3S

I sometimes use WSJTX on Mac. WSJTX is set to use USBcodec and Mac internal audio to mute.
Having checked current my system setting, its default audio output has been set to USBcodec although I have not set so. The audio setting might have been changed by system itself. Therefore, I would suggest to check your system setting before you play sound on Mac.
