I have a huge improvement in the Weaver demod. I did not use it before. The auto tune memories improvement is also a great upgrade. Thank you Wayne and Elecraft team for continuing to make the KX3 the most remarkable QRP radio ever.

I just confirmed that the opposite-sideband image is way down. I believe John was hearing the effect of the notch at 1500 Hz, which is a characteristic of Weaver demodulation. When you inject a carrier and sweep through the SSB passband, the existence of the notch can make it appear that you're hearing both desired and image signals -- but what you're really hearing is just the tone at different pitches on either side of the notch.

Interesting. Well, I and a number of other testers have noted better
fidelity, and the op who had measured the in-band OSB image at 20 dB
reported that it had dropped significantly.

I've been listening to music in the AM broadcast band in SSB mode with FL2
engaged, and it sounds quite clean.

No improvement here that I can detect in the weaver demod fix.
