The K3 sounds very good as a SSB rig. Apart from a few digital modes, that's almost all I use it for. You have almost complete adjustment of your TX audio by adjusting 8 band EQ, compression, and noise gate. If you hear one that sounds bad, it's more than likely a setup issue by the operator. When I'm rag chewing on 75 meters, I almost always get someone new that passes by and stops to ask what rig I'm using because they like the way it sounds.
