Re: [Elecraft] K3 and PSK
Is there somewhere where I might find a more exhaustive step by step discussion of seting up sound levels on the pc while connected to the K3. I may be a little dense and have not felt entirely comfortable with what I have read in the manual. Maybe this discussion might include config menu items and what the different settings would do to effect the way the K3 behaves with different modes? A good example of this is the idea of setting the number of bars for pc output, correct? Would this be done for actual rf output or would this be done via setting tx to test? thank you, Rob KE7VHF Robert Hall www.RobertHall.com On Wed, Jan 28, 2009 at 8:20 PM, Don Wilhelm wrote: > Ron, > > I would suggest that you reduce the soundcard output level and increase > the K3 line in setting for smoother control of the audio level.
