Hi Don - I'm running on a K3S rather than a KX3 so working with the internal sound card..
I switched to DATA Mode and Data A but WSPR-2 shows no Rx, there is no signal apparent on the waterfall.

Set it at the 75% point or a bit higher. One "eccentricity" of the KX3 is that *if* the audio input is too high the KX3 will protect the audio input by shutting it down. Start with the MIC GAIN at a low level and bring it up slowly until you find the point where you have 4 bars solid on the ALC meter. If the mic gain setting is at a rediculously low level, you can add some attenuation in the audio cable - 100k in series and 10k across the line at the K3 end will give you about a 10x reduction in input to the KX3. Instead of using USB mode, use DATA A - it is almost the same thing, but compression is automatically turned off and the equalization is automatically set to flat. That leaves your SSB settings intact when you go back to voice. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/14/2016 9:05 AM, MaverickNH wrote: > I've used that in my set-up of app and rig, but no go.
