A little off topic but the same programs. I'm also using DM-780 and all seems to be fine. I'm just wondering, on transmit I hear the output in my speaker connected to the K3, is that Normal? Is there any way to lower this it's pretty distracting sometimes. I have the volume control turned down but this seems to be preset. I'm using the Infrasonic Quartet sound card. Any help would be appreciated.

I use DM780 daily for ragchews, and Writelog for contesting. I currently have 4 sound cards in my PC, and am considering a 5th :) The K3 is an amazing radio for PSK, with it's isolated audio in & out's, plus the wonderful filtering capabilities, but you absolutely should proceed with a dedicated sound card interface for digital modes to get the most out of it. 73, W9PDS Ron Midwin wrote: > Oh really? > > I thought the K-3 has its own sound card which is how you can detect PSK31 > without a computer? > > Is there a good application note that defines all this for us "novices" at > PSK31? > > While I'm at it, then is the Signal Link USB I just sold, based on a > recommendation on this site, really something that is needed for optimum > PSK31 performance? > > Please note that I am able to work PSK31 with the sound card in my PC, thru > 1/8 inch stereo cables to the in/out on the K-3, but I'm trying to not use > the PC's sound card for this, so I can use it for other modes > simultaneously, like EchoLink? > > What I'd really like to hear from is someone who considers himself to have > mastered PSK31 on the K3.
