Re: [Elecraft] K3 - Another push-to-talk question

In N1MM when you set the serial port for the K3 on the Configurer click the button to the right of the serial port you're using that says Set. Check off the box that says "Radio PTT via command". 73, Alan N5NA Doug VE3VS wrote: > > I have been enjoying operating my K3 for several months. On

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - Another push-to-talk question

Rich, No downside that I am aware of. Now, if you have applications that control the K3 and you have them configured to start automatically, I would think that would be a problem because the K3 is not be powered on when the application starts. Moral, start the applications that talk to the K3

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - Another push-to-talk question

Doug, the answer is yes, but the details depend on whether you are using MMTTY stand-alone or from inside another application (like N1MM Logger or Logger32). If you are using MMTTY from inside another application, the easiest way is to let the parent application handle rig control and PTT. The

Re: [Elecraft] K3 - Another push-to-talk question

[Elecraft] K3 - Another push-to-talk question

I have been enjoying operating my K3 for several months. One of my interests includes RTTY. I use the latest MMTTY software (AFSK), have the two audio lines connected, and use VOX to operate this mode. At the same time, the serial cable from the computer to the radio remains connected. Question
