I run WSPR on 500-KHz as WD2XSH/45. I interfaced the computer audio
thru the K3 line-in and line-out jacks and control PTT with the
RS-232 connection. This requires you to run DATA-A. I set my
receive audio with the computer audio mixer window without any
changes to the K3. It runs at about
You think that's something try 30 meters and see what you get... you'll be
amazed. Oh, then lower it down to 1 watt...

As a veteran of one whole weekend on WSPR I'll share what I have learned.
First I would turn off the CW ID since it isn't necessary and clutters up the
WSPR frequency.
Yes, all you will hear is what appears to be a solid tone while you are
transmitting.
I wouldn't use the RF gain contr

If you have other questions let me know. I'm not expert, but I can certainly

the rig correctly configured as I use the current setup for all digital
modes. I have the K3 set to DATA A mode. Since I've never used WSPR before
though, when TXing, what are you supposed
