K3 and MMTTY Settings

[Bill Gaines]

I need some help. I have used my K3 and MMTTY for RTTY mode communications  for a long time. I used MMTTY as a standalone program, I used it imbedded in N1MM classic and I also used it imbedded in my logging program Logger 32. Life has gotten in the way of operating and as a result I haven’t been on RTTY for several months. Well this past weekend there was an RTTY contest on and I had a few minutes to get on so I turned the rig on and brought up one of the programs to get on and have some fun. Well I couldn’t make any of the three show me the XY scope. it was just a small dot in the middle of the screen.  I could transmit OK and would decode on the screen of the radio but I can’t seem to get it going again in MMTTY. Is there someone using any of these three programs that could help me discover what setting I am missing either in the software or the radio?

Thanks,
Bill AD8P

If the only thing you are seeing in the MMTTY X-Y display is a dot in the
centre, that means no audio signal is getting to MMTTY. That in turn could
have a number of explanations. First, check that the audio cable between
the rig and the sound card is connected correctly and seated properly in
the connectors. Next, check that the correct sound card is selected in
MMTTY. Windows can and does change the list of sound cards, so this is not
a set it once and forget it setting - re-check it any time something goes
wrong with the audio. If the correct sound card is selected and the
physical connections are OK, check levels. Check the K3's LIN OUT level in
the CONFIG menu. If there is a physical control on the sound card device,
make sure it is not turned all the way down. In Windows, check that the
sound card has not been disabled, and that the Windows level setting for
the receive (recording) sound card is correct/reasonable.
