Re: K3: PSK31 will not allow Split operation

You can run split if you use a program like fldigi. I worked WIAW/0 this afternoon this way. I believe any program with a waterfall can run split--that is not the same as direct readout on the screen, but it is better than nothing.

PSK31 SPLIT:

Folks,

It seems the solution is there is no solution. PSK31 SPLIT appears unsupported in the K3 and the KX3. The argument seems to be PSK31 is never used in SPLIT operation. But W1AW/* uses Split for pileups. And many DXpeditions have used it (T32C for instance). While I rarely use any digital mode other than CW, I thought it was nifty to have RTTY and PSK31 as part of the K3. Turns out it is near nifty. :)

Ah, but maybe SPLIT for PSK31 is on on the list of things to come later? or have I missed something?

Re: K3: PSK31 will not allow Split operation

Most, if not all radios I have seen, going split is NOT mode dependent.
This should be corrected ASAP.

Re: K3: PSK31 will not allow Split operation

There's nothing to correct, split works fine on Data A.

Worked W1AW/0 on PSK63, split on the first call the other day. My first PSK63
QSO... I liked it, very snappy compared to the watching paint dry PSK31.

You do need to insure that the "B" vfo is on the same mode as the "A". Double
tap A->B to insure this.

Re: K3: PSK31 will not allow Split operation

split works fine for DATA A, AFSK A, and FSK D

but it does *NOT* for PSK D

the question is...
why was this one digital mode not allowed to operate split?

Re: K3: PSK31 will not allow Split operation

I stand corrected. You are correct. Why, I don't know.

Personally, I would never try to operate these "internal" digi modes. I can't
send decent CW with the built-in keyer, I shudder to think what my digital
signals would be :-)

Re: K3: PSK31 will not allow Split operation

In reply to this post by k5oai

This one digital mode is used *only* for PSK from paddles. If one
needs to do split PSK31 use DATA A with the computer and either split
audio tones from the computer PSK31 program (DM-780, MixW, WinWarbler,
DigiPan, etc.) or split VFOs like any other mode.

With PSK D one can not monitor the transmit frequency to make sure it
is clear if split.

What about PSK via the P3/SVGA? I thought it uses PSK-D.
