muting audio on PSK

Paul Milward
Hi folks
I need a little help. I am using the K3 on PSK a lot. I turn the audio gain to
zero and that mutes received audio. However, I cannot find a way to mute the
transmit audio (annoying whine). I have rear and reread the manual and cannot
find any help.
Does anyone know how to mute transmit audio on PSK?

Re: muting audio on PSK

Dick Dievendorff
Could this be the Monitor Gain?

Try pressing the bottom right knob to the left of the VFO for about a half
second (HOLD time), the VFO B area should say "MON xx" where xx is a number,
and rotate the knob to a lower setting. This knob is also used for
compression, transmit power, etc.

Re: muting audio on PSK

John Ragle
My XYL does not like the beadle-beadle of the BPSK, so I stick a blank
(no wiring, no shorting) stereo plug into the front "PHONES" jack. That
opens the circuit and makes everyone happy.

1)  Are you sure it's coming out of the K3 and not the sound card?

2)  Does transmitter power affect it?

Re: muting audio on PSK

Paul Milward
tnx for all the responses
I have a pair of stereo speakers connected to the back of the K3. I also have a
Yamaha headset connected, both the speakers and headset are always active. This
setup allows me to monitor from across the room and also to rapidly access the
headset when necessary. Obviously I do not need audio for PSK. Received audio is
easily silenced by setting audio gain to zero, but transmit audio is always
present regardless of the Power setting. The MON=0 and the audio is produced in
the k3 not the computer.
I use a pair of stereo cables from the I/O on the back of the rig to the (audio)
I/O on the laptop

Paul,

Are you aware that the MON level is saved on a per mode
basis?  Did you check MON while in Data mode (assuming
you are using DATA A for PSK31)?
