Hmmmm, Bob,
I haven't looked to see how much difference there is between the two
settings; I don't use VOX for SSB. I guess I probably should have a
look, though. I hadn't thought of this issue because of the way I
operate. Good catch.

I use VOX for my SSB operating. Thus if I were to use it for digital modes I
would need to change the settings. And then set it back for SSB. With CAT
that is set in the software as I outlined. Set it and forget it.

I have a K3s and have never used CAT for PTT fuctions. I found it to hard to
set up and think about. I do use VOX for keying the transmitter. I find that
works very well and is mindlessly simple to set up. The only thing you need to
know is to remember to turn the VOX function on and make sure you have enough
audio going in to satisfy the 4 steady bars with a 5th flickering on the ALC
indicator. This approach allow me to switch to differing digital software with
little need to do further set ups. I suggest that those who are having problems
setting up CAT for their radios give this a try and see how well it works. And
BTW: I do use FT8 fairly regularly as well as RTTY and PSK31.

Are you saying the K3S does not go into the transmit mode, or are you saying
there is no audio?
From the K3S CONFIG menu you should have RS232 set to USB. The K3S Menu
should have MIC SEL set to Line IN. Is anything plugged into the Line In on
the back of the radio? Unplug it if so. The radio Data MD should be set to
DATA A.
With the F2 Setup Menu of WSJT-X the Radio pane: Data Bits as 8, Stop bit as
1 and Handshake as NONE. PTT Method as CAT, Mode as Data/Pkt, Split operation
as RIG. On the Audio pane: Soundcard both Input and Output should be USB
Audio CODEC and Mono.
This is my configuration.

Folks,
I posted this on the WSJT-X reflector but
got no replies. Perhaps someone here has
the answer.

Using Windows 10... Joy...
I have WSJT-X set up to use the K3s USB
Audio Codec, input & output. Both are
selected as Mono.
The codec is selected in the computer.
I have found no way to get the K3s to
transmit unless the K3s USB codec is set
to default device in the computer.
If I have another soundcard/option
selected in the computer, the K3s will
indeed present transmit mode as WSJT-X
signals it to do, but there is no RF
generated from the K3s. It's Lights on,
nobody home. WSJT works fine but also
transfers any computer sound to the K3s
during transmit.
If nothing is playing on the computer and
the codec is selected as default, I have
no trouble with anything WSJT-X related.
This is how I have had to have it working
for the last 10 months. However, I
recently discovered a youtube was playing
on another page and that audio was coming
through with my WSJT transmission. This is
unacceptable.
Bottom line seems to be, I must have the
K3s USB codec selected as default in the
windows sound control panel or I cannot
transmit with WSJT-X.
There must be another something I'm
missing but I can't seem to find it.
Any suggestions?
