PSK31 transmissions

JULIAN BRADBERRY
I am experiencing a problem trying to transmit PSK messages.  I had a friend work with me to determine if I was transmitting both carrier and text.  The carrier went out strong and solid but the text did not accompany the carrier.  I've checked the Codec settings, text and data setting and they are set correctly.  The signal link and power meter indicated that I was transmitting OK. But no text. I'm using ham radio deluxe version 5 and dm780.   Anybody have any ideas how to overcome this issue?  I have a hearing problem so text is the best form of communication for me.

Re: PSK31 transmissions

  What radio do you have?  How do you have it connected?
Everything is suspect when you first set something like this up.
Are you actually in DATA A mode (K3), or if a K2, are you in SSB mode
(usually USB) - or RTTY mode on the K2?
Does it work with a less complex software application like Digipan?
If a K2, is your SSB carrier balance set properly? - you should have no
carrier if it is correct?

Help with the answers to the above questions and tell us a bit more
about how you have things set up - interface box if any, soundcard to
K2/K3 audio connections, etc.  With that information perhaps we can
help, or at least give you some checkpoints to look at.

Julian,

Make sure you are using Data-A mode and not PSK-D.  The latter is only for
sending PSK via your CW paddle input (or ascii via a teminal program to the
serial port).  For soundcard programs you must used Data-A.

PSK31

David Guernsey
In reply to this post by JULIAN BRADBERRY
I am using a K3/10 and cocoamodem for PSK31.      I can receive great with
cocoasmodem, but can't get the K3 to transmit from cocoamodem.  I am using USB
mode per cocoamodem's config instructions.  How do I get my K3 to transmit from
cocoamodem in USB using either VOX or PTT

Use Data mode and make sure you select Data-A as the submode, not USB.  Go
to the main menu and in the MIC SEL option choose Line-In.  You may have to
turn your VOX way up for it to trigger.
