Note that in Windoze, there are TWO Sound Mixers. The RECORD mixer Selects the input to the computer that is used to DECODE a digital signal. The PLAYBACK mixer MIXES various computer sources and sends them to the radio as modulation. The two mixers are accesses from the Options tab. The Master Fader in the Playback mixer should be set to full output. The WAV Fader should be set to roughly half way up. All the other faders should be muted. The Record Mixer should select the input that you're using. As someone else suggested, make sure that the internal mike is not switched on. Go to the Mic section, select Advanced or any other tab around the Mic fader, and check the settings. As others have suggested, when you have JT65 sending TX tones, you should hear them if you plug headphones into the output (and on laptop speakers, if you're using a laptop. If you hear the tones, proceed to the radio. At the radio, you need SOMETHING to make it transmit. Some use PTT, but I use VOX. One common simple thing is that you may need to adjust the VOX level to make it transmit. That's on the CONFIG "short push" menu. To adjust it, make sure the computer is sending tones and advance the VOX gain until you start transmitting. Also, you may need to increase the Line Input gain. When you're in a Digital mode, the front panel Mic Gain pot adjusts the Line Input gain. There are MANY guys using a K3 for JT65, and everything works great once you get going. I suspect your problem is something simple. 73, Jim K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
