K3 UTILITY RTTY

Jack

I have been working RTTY for the first time using the K3 Utility and boy is it ever easy!  Almost too easy! Takes the challenge out!

 

Anyway, my question is....

 

In RTTY mode, FSK D I am seeing K3 commands in the TEXT RECEIVED window when I send.

For example: ;AE6GKY0;C AEKY0;6GCKY0

 

I also see commands when I tune showing VFO A and B’s frequency.

 

Is this normal? It is kind of distracting!

Try setting Auto Info (AI) off. From the command tester window, type “AI0;” (don’t forget the semicolon)    You may have AI1 for something like a SteppIR controller or perhaps another logging program left the rig in AI2 or AI1 mode. 

 

In “auto info” mode, the K3 sends data to the connected program whenever you change frequency. 

 

The insertion of the commands is because somehow you’ve managed to trigger my “diagnostic” spew. Try pressing CTRL-W to see if that stops it.

Thanks for the tips.

 

Sending AI0 from the COMMAND TESTER panel stopped the K3 commands from echoing.

 

CTRL W turns on and off the “KY debug display.” At least it sez so, in red on the screen.  It does not seem to stop the K3 command echo by itself.

 

Thanks again to ...

RE: K3 UTILITY RTTY

Hmm.  I’ll look into this.  I’m not dealing with the KY command response.

 

I’m getting a KY0; response to KY text; in RTTY, but not CW.

 

I think Wayne may have added a response to the KY command that I’m not dealing with.  Most of this was done some time ago.

 

 I’ll put that on my “To Do” list.   Sorry I can’t do better for today...
