Is there something I'm missing? I am unable to setup my K3 to use VOX anytime its in digital mode without it changing my SSB modes also over to VOX. I only use VOX for Digital Modes and never use it for SSB/FM/AM. Does anyone else have this issue or know if there is a fix for it? Is this a firmware issue?

Hold down DATA MD and make sure that you are in a AFSK mode.

Ive been using Data A because I do PSK31 and JT65a all via the Data audio ports in the back into my soundcard. So I should be using AFSK mode instead?? Brandon On Jun 21, 2010, at 8:28 PM, Brett Howard [via Elecraft] wrote: Hold down DATA MD and make sure that you are in a AFSK mode. |

There are two mode groups; CW/FSK D/PSK D and SSB/AM/FM/DATA A/AFSK A. Note the "A" in DATA A and AFSK A ... that indicates "Audio" where the "D" in FSK D/PSK D indicates "direct" as in direct keying. VOX applies to the "Audio" group as a whole. 73, ...

So no solution? I want VOX to be on no matter what band im on when i select Data Mode. Anytime I change out of Data mode I want VOX to be off. Otherwise when I switch from doing digital modes i occasionally forget to turn VOX off and i go into TX. Brandon On Jun 21, 2010, at 8:32 PM, Joe Subich, W4TV-4 [via Elecraft] wrote:

I'd have to go check but I'm pretty sure that VOX is remembered per
band/per mode so you just have to set it that way and it should remember it. ~Brett (N7MG) On Mon, 2010-06-21 at 20:36 -0700, Brandon673 wrote: > So no solution?

You seem to be right. The VOX state is also not retained when programming memories. Quite strange.

Looks like a firmware Issue. Im sending a Firmware request to Elecraft. Thank you everyone for your replies! Brandon K6BDR

Also check your VOX level in the menu. It needs to be turned up very
high when using it for digital modes. You are correct to use DataA for PSK and other audio based digital modes. AFSK can be used for RTTY and gives you the advantage of using the dual peak filters. Other than that there's no difference between AFSK and DataA. 73 Greg AB7R On 6/21/2010 8:40 PM, Brett Howard wrote: > I'd have to go check but I'm pretty sure that VOX is remembered per > band/per mode so you just have to set it that way and it should remember > it. > > ~Brett (N7MG) > > On Mon, 2010-06-21 at 20:36 -0700, Brandon673 wrote: > >> So no solution?
