Dwight,
I don't have experience with Remote Rig, and Brandon's suggestions
usurp mine. One thing I know is that if you are using USB mode
instead of DATA A, you will have to set compression to zero and set
the TX EQ to flat. Failure to do that will result in distorted data
transmissions.

Thanks foTalked with Elecraft and they sent me a paper on setting up
the different modes for the K3/0. One thing I was doing wrong was
using Data A when they recommend USB. Seems to be okay now with some
more signal reports.
HNY to all 73 de NS9I Dwight

Dwight,
You have the audio level set correctly if you are getting 4 bars on
the ALC meter with the 5th one flickering at times.
Are you using DATA A mode? If you are using USB mode, you must
manually turn off compression and set the equalizer flat. Using
DATA A does that automatically.
Another thing to consider is that the soundcard output of the laptop
may be distorted. You might try an external soundcard.
Do you have distortion in SSB voice operation? If no distortion in
SSB, there is likely nothing wrong with the K3.
Those are the only things I can think of at the moment - unless the
problem is with the receiving station.
One nice thing about remote operation (if the transmitter is really
a good distance from your control position), you can use another
receiver and computer to monitor your data mode signals yourself. A
modest antenna should do OK for receiving your signal so you may be
able to 'sneak it' by the HOA or your building manager. Think
stealth antennas for portable work.
