Hello all,
I bought a K2 serial number 5334 some time ago and I have been
enjoying the capabilities of the receiver since I got it in the shack.
Transmit audio on SSB is another matter.
I have tried changing mics and readjusting the BFO for OP1 etc.
I continue to get audio reports that I have muffled or distorted
audio. In general, the reports are that I am barely understandable in
good condition and I can not use the k2 to transmit in poor conditions.
I am using a kenwood mc-43s mic currently and have tried the mh2 mic. I
get better reports with the kenwood mic.
I have tried to monitor my own audio with another receiver but I am not
sure even when using a dummy load that I am not getting distortion from
overload on the second receiver.
But, considering at a .1 watt power level in to a dummy load is not over
loading. I hear badly distorted audio that seams to me to have elements
of clipping at the peaks of words. And also even when i whistle a
single tone I hear multiple tones in the second receiver. In addition, I
would have to characterize my audio a generally unpleasing.
I have also tried all mic and processor level in the menu., both SSBa
and SSbC
I have tried every thing I know.
I would like to get some input on what to try next.
