Re: [Elecraft] RTTY and the K3
The latest firmware for the K3 is 3.68 released on Dec 11. It's always a good idea to update to the latest version if you experience a problem, as it may already have been fixed. I'm not aware of any recent issue affecting audio drive levels in DATA A, but I can tell you that I can drive my K3 to 4 bars of ALC and beyond using the latest firmware. - Julian, G4ILO.

Re: [Elecraft] RTTY and the K3
I am adjusting the gain via the mic controlkeeping the SignalLink USB constant. I can also set the mic control to like 40...and vary the input on the SignalLink USB. Same thing.

If you can't find any Common Sense, ask for help from somebody who has some Common Sense. Is Common Sense divine? Common Sense is the image of the Creator expressing revealed truth in my mind. - J.

You didn't actually say how you're adjusting drive ... have you experimented with the line-in gain, using the MIC control, as well as adjusting the audio source? ~Iain / N6ML On Tue, Dec 29, 2009 at 8:41 PM, Lee Buller wrote: > > > Version 3.63 in my K3.
