These are N1MM + questions. The mode selection is in the N1MM / MMTTY

I tried setting up FSK rtty today for first time in a long while, and
found I had a problem.
I have a pair of K3 rigs on the desk. No trouble with one. On the
other, Mark tone is sent higher than 2125. (It's high enough up that my
2d rig can't decode the TX signal. Maybe around 2600 Hz)
I find briefly touching the "SUB" button terminates the extra 4 seconds.

Randy,
I think you will find it is a per band setting. So, once you set it to 45
it should be the same when you come back to that band.

I have been playing with RTTY a bit lately (novice) using the K3's
decode/readout and sending with my paddle. It works great for casual
QSOs and quick DXing. But I've noticed that the baud rate reverts to 75
(from 45) frequently. I am using DXLab and frequently click on spots

The K3 power calibration is done at CW (key down) but FSK includes a
bit of shaping to reduce key clicks. That adds just a bit of peak
to average power difference and would account for a small difference
between CW and FSK. I measure just under 1 watt difference at 80 W
between CW and FSK con

Hank,
My initial guess is that it is your Powermaster.
I have recently built a 4 State QRP QRPometer to use when testing QRP
transmitters. It is an accurate meter as long as the waveform is a good
sine wave (Good CW signal), but I have also discovered that it does not
read correctly if the wa
If I set power to 100 watts on CW the K3 setting and my Array Solutions
Powermaster power meter read the same within a watt or two. Leaving the K3
power set at 100 watts on CW and switch to DATA and run MMTTY diddles , the
Powermaster is reading 116 watts. Sending RTTY text it bounces betwee
I'm surprised you could hear the tones through the rig with the wrong mic
setting. Glad you got it resolved!

To all who offered help and encouragement, a great big thank-you!
The secret was in setting MIC SEL to line in. Dunno how I missed it, but I did.
Listen carefully, and you'll hear the sound of a self administered double
dope-slap.

Was that a plain USB soundcard, or is it a digital interface box (like

If it is a digital interface box, most of those are set for microphone
level output, so dig into the documentation and find out how to set it
for Line Level output. Line level is 50 to 1
What's power and mic gain settings? It's not in Test mode is it?

Thanks to some excellent suggestions, I was able to get receive working, but
transmit is still a no-go.
I cannot get an ALC indication. I've run the sound card volume up and down it's
range. I can hear the tones thru the K3 speaker, so they're getting in.
It's got to be something so simple I'll
Mike, MMTTY expects the transceiver to be set to LSB. If yours is set to

I'm trying to help a new K3 owner set up for RTTY using MMTTY and AFSK A. I
have a Mac, he's running Win XP.
I added a USB sound card (mic and fones) and stereo cables in and out. Win
recognizes it, and I chose it in MMTTY and Win.
