Ed,
The audio settings for the K3 and K3 are the same, control the audio so
you have 4 bars solid on the ALC meter with the 5th bar flashing.
Use the computer output controls to establish that level with the KX3
Mic Gain set to mid-range.
You will want to use the headphone output of the KX3 rather than the IQ
output. The IQ output is at too low a level to drive the soundcard
input for DATA modes.

Firstly, I am quite comfortable/experienced running JT65 with my K3, so
hopefully some of that will transfer to setting up the KX3.
I have ordered a West Mountain "RIGblaster Plug & Play" with RJ45-to-4
ring mic jack optional cable for interfacing my laptop to the KX3. I
still have to download latest vers of WSJT-X. Hopefully includes a
version that has test tones for setting levels.
I note the DATA button on the KX3 and guess one uses either headphone
audio or IQ output from ACC2. Not sure which is used by the West
Mountain I/F.
Any advice from KX3 users of digital modes (particularly on 6m) would be
appreciated. It can be off-list as this as probably been "hashed over"
before (I just didn't pay attention).
We are departing with our 5th wheel trailer for a 2-month+ 9,000-mile
trip to lower-48 within a week.
Major operating plans: CQ-VHF Contest July 21/20 (6m/2m) from Longmont,
CO, and
ARRL 10-GHz Up Contest from Copper Harbor, MI (shore of Lake Superior),
August 17/18.
KX3 with KXPA100 will be used for both plus mobile on the trip ,
occasionally from RV parks. I have 80m & 20m Hamsticks, plus 6m Moxon
and 2M7 yagi. APRS tracking when underway.
