K3 FW3.51 & RTTY

alsopb
Was switching between various digital modes and shot myself in the foot.

Turns out that AFX was set on by mistake and it destroyed the dual peak
passband function.  I was unable to decode RTTY with an external TNC
connected to line out.  Spectrogram showed why.  Turning AFX off fixed it.

Note: I do have left and right channels mixed here but was operating
with the main RX only.  So this shouldn't matter.

I was under the impression that all special signal processing was turned
off when going to digital modes.  It appears AFX should be one of them.

Re: K3 FW3.51 & RTTY

Hi Brian.  I wanted to test this so I have been working some rtty this
afternoon.  I don't see any difference in the dual peak traces with AFX
either off or on.  I tried with AFX set to BIN and also with some of the
delay settings.  In all cases the traces looked the same and did not change
decoding.

Do you maybe have Line Out set to = phones and maybe that is doing
something?
