popular in contests.

This is a UK seller who provided the cable in 5 days UK to Canada. and it
works.
Finally I don't have to use the KX3 utility to key the rig via USB.

Have you tried using KComm? It uses the same built-in capability of the K3
(and KX3) to send and decode RTTY and PSK31 (and CW).

On the K3 and KX3, is it possible to set/get the sub-mode of PSK D (45 or 75
baud.)?
Is it likely in the future that the K3 and KX3 will support a 63 baud
variant of PSK D?

it's a product of the fact that a lot of things in the K3 are
controlled by software, which does not want to make sudden changes to things
that would normally be expected to remain constant. It's just one of the
quirks of the K3 that you get used to.

For that situation a better solution might be a configuration option to

settings using my XG1 to generate 50uV and 1uV signals and observed the
audio output on a scope, then it became clear what was happening and how the
adjustments affected things.

I normally run 50W in CW or any digi mode, because I feel more comfortable
running well within the ratings, but I will always crank it up to 100W when
needed.
In a contest, you're listening half the time anyway, so 50% duty cycle and
the K3 will take it even at 100W output.

regularly but hasn't posted since May 18. Possibly Don sold his K3 and was
no longer interested, but it's a shame that it was pulled without giving
anyone any notice as even if Thom no longer wished to host it, someone else
may have volunteered to take it on.

thin the K3 form factor (and without the assistance of
deafening fans?)
Even if the output were still 100W I'd still find it an attractive option,
just for the better linearity.

is the default for computer audio, which frees up the on board sound card
for digital radio use. Despite comments in various places to the contrary,
I've always found the built-in audio chips to work pretty well for digital
modes.

Yep, that seems to be the answer. CONFIG FSK POL has to be 1.

The transmit IMD will get worse very quickly as you exceed 12W. You will
then be amplifying all these IMD products.
It depends whether you want to sound like a US station or someone from

Never having used FSK before, I didn't even know there was such a setting. I
just used DATA MD to set RTTY 75 as directed. I'll have a look and see if it
