K3 digital mode
Locked
 
|
I started to play with RTTY this morning, and cannot get the K3 to transmit.
The K3 is set for AFSK A, 2125 170. Vox is on. Monitor level is 15. CW works FB. The computer is a MacBook Pro pushing an iMic set for line level. I can hear the output from the iMic if I plug fones into it. The RTTY program is CocoaModem 2.0. What have I missed/mis set? 73, Mike NF4L ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

Hi Mike,
If you're using external sound for your data modes, you should have the mode set to DATA A, not AFSK A. Having your audio set to Line in DATA A mode is correct, unless you're going through the mic and phones jacks. Most people use the line in/out for external data modes (very handy!). For keying, see CONFIG:PTT-KEYT. You can use DTR or RTS to key the K3. You can also enable VOX, but there will be a slight start up delay before the rig enters TX (probably not enough to worry about). 73, matt W6NIA On Tue, 4 Mar 2014 08:32:27 -0500, you wrote: >I started to play with RTTY this morning, and cannot get the K3 to transmit. > >The K3 is set for AFSK A, 2125 170.

AFSK A is the correct sub-mode for "soundcard RTTY". 73, ~iain / N6ML ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

Actually either can be used. But using AFSK-A gives you the benefit of
still using the K3 dual peak filters for RTTY. You will need to make sure your tones (pitch control) on the K3 match what you use for MMTTY or whatever software you use for RTTY. 73 Greg On Tue, Mar 4, 2014 at 8:18 AM, iain macdonnell - N6ML <[hidden email]>wrote: > On Tue, Mar 4, 2014 at 6:51 AM, Matt Zilmer <[hidden email]> > wrote: > > If you're using external sound for your data modes, you should have > > the mode set to DATA A, not AFSK A. > > AFSK A is the correct sub-mode for "soundcard RTTY". > > 73, > > ~iain / N6ML > ______________________________________________________________ > Elecraft mailing list > Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft > Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm > Post: mailto:[hidden email] > > This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net > Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html > Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[hidden email] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html |

Thanks Matt -
For my setup RTTY uses AFSK A, PSK uses DATA A. The problem (red-faced) was VOX Gain was zero. 73, Mike On Mar 4, 2014, at 9:51 AM, Matt Zilmer <[hidden email]> wrote: > Hi Mike, > > If you're using external sound for your data modes, you should have > the mode set to DATA A, not AFSK A.

Well, that *would* give the result you posted! Good for you, Mike.
