Lee, I have not tried RTTY with the latest firmware - BUT --
Until Lyle states differently, I would suggest that you set the line in level just to the point when the 3 bars are solid, and no higher. I have not tried RTTY, but if the bars flicker, I would assume that the audio drive level is not quite 'up to snuff'. 73, Don W3FPR Lee Buller wrote: > OK... let me try again.... > > I have a K3 with V.3.63.
