K3 RTTY Problem

I am having a problem with receiving RTTY signals. It worked before so I assume it is something I have set incorrectly.

There is no display of anything on any of the RTTY applications. No waterfall, nothing at all. I have tried different computers and multiple applications with the same results. I have adjusted the line out item in the config menu to full scale.

I plugged headphones into the line out jack I can hear the RTTY signal but it seems to be attenuated. Although I don't know how loud it should be.

BTW: transmit doesn't work at all. That will be the subject of another email.

Any help would be appreciated.

The fact that you have audio at the LINE OUT jack,which you can hear
with your headphones, but nothing in the computer waterfall, strongly
suggests the problem is either in the cables between your radio and
computer soundcard, in the computer soundcard, or the setup of the
software or soundcard in the computer.

Since you have tried multiple computers and applications, I'd first
eliminate the cables as the suspect.
