True magic for non-contesters would be to filter
out all contesters and have a quiet band :-)
Guess that's called "Move to WARC bands".

There is one PTT line inside the radio. Thus, the K3 has no way of
knowing if you pressed a PTT button on
That's what I was afraid of.

One issue here is that the K3 only allows a single audio source. Some
other radios (e.g., Orion) allow you to enable both the rear line-in
jack and the front panel mic jack.
The simple K3 work-around seems to be to Y the front panel mic jack
and pad down the line level audio to go in the front
Yes, I also recently requested that DATA A mode default to the LINE IN
jack, if there's not a per-mode default for MIC SEL and GAIN. The
built-in isolated data interface is great and I unplugged my
TigerTronics SL-1+ and used just two cables for digital modes. But as

We have an active discussion going on with the FT group about this very

The LINE IN Gain and MIC Gain are separately maintained values, even
though they use the same control, so when you switch from MIC to LINE

Thank you Lyle! So 50% of my problem is already solved! I can see you

If they're both active, you mix them. During ssb contest with the
Orion, N1MM Logger software has a check option to disable mic during
DVK'ing. What N1MM actually does in code is turn the front panel mic
gain down to zero during DVK'ing and then restores it after.

Lyle,
Since the K3 hardware design is pretty well fixed in place now, for my
part I would think mixing them would be fine. Any muting of an input
would have to be done outside the K3 if indeed muting is required.
Of course, I believe the ideal would be to have each PTT input line make
its
Just to throw in my opinion, Another Menu Entry is not a real
problem, but it can be a real solution.
Being able to combine audio from Line In and Mic does the trick for
me. I'll just wire up the Mic PTT to enable the audio from the mike.
BTW, many comments have been made about how tight 20M
Hallo Lyle,
You specify to the K3 which of three possible sources ...
It could however make sense, if possible to allow multi audio input.
An example would be an external DVK (e.g. Laptop) hooked up to line in
and the microphone connected to one of the microphone inputs.
One could be
Bzzt, I think it'd be better if this were implemented with the Line In
having priority. The computer knows how to be quiet better than my
scratchy throat does.
