K3 RTTY Help

Steve Lett
I was trying to set my K3 for RTTY. By changing the menu settings, somehow
I have put my K3 in transmit mode and now cannot change the VFO B or A Menu
or Config settings to get it to stop transmitting. I turned the K3 off but
when I turn it on, it goes into transmit mode. What can I do to get my K3
out of the locked transmit mode? Thank you.

It sounds like what ever system you are using to key the
transmitter isn't letting go. Please provide more details about
your setup. Are you doing RTTY with the K3 alone, using CW
paddles to send? Are you using a sound card to process the audio out?

Steve,

The problem source may be in something related to your external setup.
Remove all connections from the K3 - does it behave normally?
Then add back the external connections one at a time to see which one
creates the problem.
