Lee,
In addition to the MIC Gain and the WSJT POWER slider (misnamed because
it is just another audio level control, you also have to deal with the
computer soundcard audio level. It should be set for Line Level instead
of speaker if that is possible, and that is one of the 3 audio controls
First cut the output from the computer by 1/3 to 1/2. Now this will allow
finer adjustment with the K3 controls.

slider on WSJT down.

because the Super Bowl is on!
I call this the "gain chain" problem. It depends a bit on how you are set up
but try the following. Go into the menu on the K3S and turn down the LIN OUT
value. I have mine set at 2 I
I am running WSJT-X in FT8 mode on my K3S using the onboard sound card and USB
cable and VOX for keying. My computer is a Mac running Catalina. The K3S manual
recommends setting the drive at 4 or 5 bars to avoid distortion by the ALC..
When I use the audio output slider set the drive level, the
