Mixw & mmtty settings

[Gary Gregory-2]

Trying out RTTY for the first time here on my k3.
Reading the setup for both I am getting bamboozled, no big surprise there I know.
Getting the k3 to "talk" to the software is proving a tad difficult. (read, I'm slow?)
Is there a link for step by step setup for a k3, and also, am I correct in my assumption that the software will follow VFO A as it tracks up and down the band.
Using line In/Out and USB to serial for PTT.
Figured I better master this BEFORE I do the IOTA expedition.
Any assistance welcome, but be sympathetic folks, I'm getting older by the day you know.
73

K3 or K3S?

 > Is there a link for step by step setup for a k3,

No.

AFSK or FSK?

What interface?

You might look at the examples for MixW and MMTTY with microHAM
USB Interface III at www.microHAM-USA.com/support.html (in the
USB Interface III area).  While they are not Elecraft specific
they should get you started in configuring the software.

Note - for AFSK and PSK31, use AFSK A and DATA A respectively.
Set MENU:MIC SEL to "LInE In", connect sound card audio to the
LINE IN jack of the K3 and adjust the mic gain for *four bars*
of ALC (ALC may flicker to the fifth bar).  *DO NOT* adjust power
output by adjusting the mic gain - reduce power in PSK31/63/125
to ~40 watts maximum using the PWR control.
