Nate,

I have WSJT-X v1.7.0 installed so I looked at my transmit frequency
with Split set to "Rig" on the settings/Radio tab.
I see the K3 transmit 1.2 KHz high which is correct since JT65 uses a
1220 Hz tone modulated onto the carrier in USB mode.
I then tested with Split set to None and see the same frequency
displayed when pressing TUNE on WSJT-X.  This just reinforces that Tx
is on the same frequency as Rx unless you actually set VFO-B to a
different freq.

I'm guessing you have LSB selected on the K3 to have transmit lower
than carrier, which would also be normal running JT65.  But I wonder
what the proper standard is for 160-80-40m for running JT65.  My
understanding was you always run JT65 in USB.  This is a setting done
using the DATA MD button (AFX PRESS-HOLD) where you select DATA-A in USB.

In either case your carrier freq is still equal to Rx frequency
displayed by both WSJT-X and the radio VFO-A.

BTW I configure Mode: None and get the same function under JT65 so
you do not need to select Data/Pkt when running the K3, as long as
you run DATA-A on the K3.

I made my tests on 2m but should be the same on HF.

I have run JT65 on 2m-eme since 2005 using many versions of the sw
over the years.

My K3 has FW 5.50 and I made my first JT65 QSO with WSJT-X 1.7 today.  I
have the configuration as recommended--Mode :Data/Pkt, Split Operation:
Rig.  I am also using CAT for the PTT Method.  I've made a couple of
calls with the radio in Split mode and VFO B is 1 kHz lower than VFO A.
I am definitely seeing power out.

As I'm not using VOX, could that be related?

Hi Ed, and all.

I'm not sure where the confusion lies, perhaps I did not communicate
well.  I'm not seeing any problem.  I have my rig control settings
exactly as recommended in the WSJT-X user guide.

All I wanted to point out is whether the use of VOX as reported was the
cause for the loss of TX audio.  I have WSJT-X set to use CAT for PTT.
As presumably the OP is already using radio control, it makes little
sense to me to use VOX.  By setting PTT via CAT, spurious sounds from
the computer will not cause the radio to transmit.
