K3 DATA setting

John McBride-2
I am getting my K3 ready to use PSK31 on Field Day. 40 meters is configured for DATA A, but I can't change 20 or 15 meters from USB to DATA A. What direction or suggestion do you have to make this change.

Make sure you aren't in Split mode.

John,

Mode is a per band setting.  So do not expect it to be 'sticky' from
band to band.
Once you go to the band for operation, you should be able to change the
mode.

Re: K3 DATA setting

John McBride-2
Thanks for the replies. I am not using split mode, and am trying to make the change from USB to DATA A in the individual bands of 20 and 15 meters. Yes, the change was made successfully for 40 meters from LSB to DATA A. Any thing else I should check? Knowing me there is probably an easy answer.

John

Re: K3 DATA setting

Elecraft mailing list
When you press the mode button on the K3, it should cycle through: USB—>CW—>DATA—>AM—>FM—> and then back to CW. What does your do?

If it indeed displays DATA and you leave it there, then push and hold the AFX/Data MD button, turning the VFO-B knob should cycle you through: Data A—>AFSK A—FSK D—>PSK D—> and then back to DATA A. Your result?

In reply to this post by John McBride-2
Please note that if you are trying to get SPLIT mode On. Both VFOs must be in same DATA mode before you activate SPLIT. Tap A>B twice quickly to do this.
