Andy,
I did not see any response on the reflector, so I will try.
First of all, you need a soundcard. If you have installed the KIO3B in
that K3, there is an internal soundcard in the K3 that can e used.
If the KIO3 has not been upgraded, you will need a soundcard external to
the K3. Either

Dwight,
I don't have experience with Remote Rig, and Brandon's suggestions usurp
mine. One thing I know is that if you are using USB mode instead of
DATA A, you will have to set compression to zero and set the TX EQ to
flat. Failure to do that will result in distorted data transmissions.
Dwight,
You have the audio level set correctly if you are getting 4 bars on the
ALC meter with the 5th one flickering at times.
Are you using DATA A mode? If you are using USB mode, you must manually
turn off compression and set the equalizer flat. Using DATA A does that
automatically.
My question is that I would like to be able to simultaneously decode
more than 2.8KHz (HRD is limited to 3.9KHz) of the ham band at once.
I have thought about fitting the 6KHz AM filter (there not being a
4KHz filter available). One part of me says that would work just
fine and the other part

Yes, I have RTTY working in AFSK mode.
I am trying to make it as LEAN as possible.
If MMTTY can bring the FSK as a digital signal which can be fed into the
K3 as digital signal (0/1) that would be nice and Lean. Just as N1MM and
CW over one cable for the K3.
Of course I can use two
Yep. Set up FSK D, turn TEXT DEC on and go to the Terminal program in

Arie,
I assume you are asking whether it is possible to use the RS232 port to
send FSK RTTY in FSK D. If so, the answer is yes. Below are three
theoretically possible methods - only the third one works, and only from
a limited selection of software, but it is possible.
The K3 does not accept
Thanks Rich, clear answer.
Well...
The idea was to use LP bridge.
Send the RTTY keying via a com-port from MMTTY, and control the rest of
the K3 via another com with N1MM logger. Since there's only one cable to
the K3, all signals should run over the same cable, just like the
combination of
Arie,
You will have to ask Larry Phipps if that MMTTY stream is implemented in
LP-Bridge.
RTTY via DTR is possible, but would require the one transistor keying
circuit to drive the PTT-IN pin on the K3s ACC connector. Of course,
LP-Bridge may or may not support DTR through its interface.
The MMTTY/EXTFSK combination can use DTR on a serial port for FSK
keying, but I have no idea whether EXTFSK would work through LP-Bridge.
Without EXTFSK, MMTTY uses TxD for FSK keying, not DTR, and that cannot
be shared with radio control.
If you are already using MMTTY, by any chance does

Mike,
In answer to your question, you can tell whether there is modulation or
not by using the K3's Monitor function (the MON level must of course be
above zero for this to work).
As for the answer to the question you didn't ask, one possible explanation
for the lack of modulation is that your

Unlike other soundcard software, which simply decodes in the DSP at whatever

I don't know of any step-by-step instructions, the whole picture is
complicated because of the variety of computer soundcards that could be
used. As far as the K3 is concerned, the procedure is simple - adjust
the line-in gain setting, much as you would with the mic gain.

Ron,
I would suggest that you reduce the soundcard output level and increase
the K3 line in setting for smoother control of the audio level. I run
my K3 line in at 12 to 13 and adjust the soundcard level to achieve the
proper number of ALC bars (4) - my soundcard controls are at the
