Different modes. I have a group of settings I use for SSB that attempt to emulate the program in my hearing aids. Not near enough for me but it's sure better than nothing. If I set the lows for -16, I can set the higher frequencies up to + 16, turn up the overall gain, and get about 32 db of net equalization [Thanks for that idea from K9YC]. 3 times that would be perfect, but I can understand SSB on my K3 that I can't on the FT-847. For CW, I try to get a peak around my sidetone [570 Hz] and roll the rest off to lower the perceived noise a little. It makes a difference. If I had a cable from the radio to the miniscule sockets the use to program my hearing aids, I wouldn't need the RX EQ :-) 73, Fred K6DGW - Northern California Contest Club - CU in the 2012 Cal QSO Party 6-7 Oct 2012 - www.cqp.org ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
