Tony,  Glad all seems to be OK.

BUT, the first thing I noticed in your settings list it the Microphone select is FP.L

You said in the previous paragraph that your were plugging the Microphone into the REAR PANEL.

If that is the case, then you should select RP.L when setting up the menu. At least that is what I do.

73 and good luck with the whole banana.

Milt, N5IA

Thanks to everyone, who offered a suggestion.  David's thought appears to be
the issue.

It seems you have pointed me in the correct direction - thank you.
Disconnected K3 input to computer soundcard and the SSB noise / echo
disappeared - now to fine tune.  Thank you.

I  had a similar problem some time ago.    had me baffled for a while

If your computer is connected to line in and out try disconnecting
them.   If  the problem disappears then check that the sound card used
for the K3 audio by opening recording devices, then select the device
you are using for the K3  and click properties.  Under the Listen tab be
sure that the box for "listen to this device" is not selected.

If it is it can create feed back that has some delays from both the K3
(if monitor Normal)  and latency withing the sound card itself to create
this kind of echo.   drove me nuts trying to figure it out.

also  I find I need to keep the monitor level down when using the
headset, Yamaha CM500 here,  otherwise there is some audio feedback

This is something new and I am perplexed.



I am using a Heil Pro-Set Plus microphone/headphones (with elements HC4 &
HC5).  The microphone line is connected to rear of K3 in the "Mono" jack.
The Heil headphone 1/8" stereo plug is connected on rear of K3 to "Phones"
jack.  The footswitch is connected to rear of K3 "PTT In".



When in VOX the K3 stays in transmit and sounds like echo of shots (my
imaginary sound) - when in PTT (preferred mode), as soon as I press the
footswitch to transmit, K3 TX light turns red, headphones outputs a series
of sound of echoes even before I say anything and if I speak my voice
echoes...
