Hi, I don't think this is a fair comment. Remember that fldigi is a free, public-domain suite of programs. Dave cannot possibly program/test the code with the dozens of rigs it can be used with. In most cases the rig control is done by someone else who happens to have that hardware. In your case (you don't mention using flrig) your probably using hamlib for the actual control, again NOT written by the fldigi crew.
Questions: Does the opmode control at top of fldigi change to reflect the mode, ie. it should say "DATA" when in data-a mode, and "USB" when in usb mode. Have you tried using flrig/xmlrpc for rig control? Integrated with fldigi, it provides a nice set of nobs, and uses direct serial port control of the k3 (ie, not going thru hamlib). Be sure to have the radio on b4 starting it as it probes the k3 on initialization for setup info. I have been doing extensive work with fldigi/flrig and my k3/mercury sdr, and have not seen this problem.
