Do you have line-in enabled so you are not looking for the input on the mic in

Set the K3 to TX TEST and look at the ALC bargraph. You should have 4 bars lighting solid with the 5th bar possibly blinking. If you are not seeing that indication on the ALC meter in the K3, you are not driving the Line-in with enough audio. The K3 "ALC" meter is also a "VU" meter on the lower part of the scale. Indication below 5 bars indicate no ALC is being generated - ALC action begins with the 5th bar. So if you followed the old advice that you should not have any ALC indication for DATA modes, that old advice must be modified for the K3. The K3 Line-in expects to see line level signals. If you are using an external interface, some by default use microphone level for the output and you must change a jumper in the box to bring it up to line level. 73, Don W3FPR On 1/8/2011 1:47 PM, Jim Littlefield wrote: > Just got my new K3 and everything is great about it except, sound card > data modes (PSK31, etc.) are not working.
