When I got my K3, one of the first produced, I made a couple of RTTY and PSK contacts with the CW-to-digital feature, virtually my first non-CW QSOs since the 1980s. I think they wondered why I sent them 5NN reports, though.

Hi Tony,

I had the function in mind, then cajoled Lyle into doing the hard part -- the 
demodulator. Somehow he figured it out in just a few days.

The key idea that led to the PSK31 and RTTY decoders was this: that a ham 
receiver should be able to demodulate all commonly heard signals and display 
them on the front panel, without resorting to a computer. That was around 2005, 
though. Since that time many new data modes have been added that made this less 
practical, but RTTY and PSK31 are still in widespread use (you can hear them 
every day) and operating in these modes using the radio itself is still 
compelling for many of us.

Re: CW-To-Data Feature

I'm glad you thought of it! It must have taken a while to get from concept to 
production. I would imagine that it's not that simple to add other data modes 
-- the foundation is there but my guess is that it would require more code 
crunching?

Thanks for all.
