[Dick Dickinson]

If I were you, Bill, I'd send it to me immediately for careful evaluation
and be prepared for dire news.

it is working fine.....

 

just spent the weekend at a shopping mall ham radio demonstration ...

I get the amp home and i head a bit of a rattle...

open the lid and a zinc screw drops out .... no washer yet ....

 

To disassemble or not ,....

  that is the question....

 

if the screw is part of a heatsink.... i better open it up ////

if it's part of a mechanical fixture maybe ....

 

what would you do ,.,,

 

i'm pretty certain what I'm going to do .

Gentlemen,
     I am having problems transmitting on RTTY using the built in facilities
of the K3 with the K3 Utility program and am using AFSK.    Decoding works
perfectly with the terminal program but the transmit messages when keyed do
not result in any action by my K3.    I have done this operation previously
but now something is wrong.

     The PC is only used for the K3 Utility and for this operation the
terminal facility of the Utility program is being utilized.

     I have tried tx with two K3s and two PCs but no joy.    Some basic
setting is wrong and I am flummoxed can someone point me to a solution.  

              Humbly yours Doug EI2CN

Doug,

When using the K3 Utility or any "terminal" program the K3 must be in
FSK-D.  If you use AFSK you must use a sound card program.
