K3 RTTY problem

n1ix1

I posted this Sunday bust since then I have been having email problems.
If you responded please send it again.


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 any text or even jiberish 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 have replaced the cable between line out and the computer.
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. I think it should be louder that it is.
BTW: transmit doesn't work at all. That will be the subject of another email.
Any help would be appreciated.

Re: K3 RTTY problem

Which program are you using?
Did this ever work?
What changes have you made since it worked?

The line out on the K3 is a low level line out and would sound
attenuated compared to the level on the speaker/phones jack. You've got
the level as high as it will go on the K3, swapped the audio cable for a
known good one, time to start looking at the sound card and application
settings on the computer.

If you are plugging into a laptop, make sure the port is set to line
in.  Mine comes up and asks me, whenever I plug something in.
