I don't believe that is totally accurate. I'm guessing you're not an active contester. The K3 is pretty good, but it most definitely does not have infinite capability to suit any situation. Last I checked, low level pass band mixing was still an issue, as is the hard audio limit for some.

With all the various AGC, DSP, and filter settings - and the two equalizers - _your_ K3 can be made to sound any way _you_ want it to sound.

It used to be that some radios just plain sounded good or just plain lousy - for whatever reason(s). The K3 can be anything from lousy to excellent - it is all up to the user to make the adjustments. Nothing is fixed in the K3 - there are nearly infinite variables to suit any situation. You can set it up for weak signal CW or resounding armchair copy - the choice is yours. The K3 can do it all.

Now, just why is it that I keep seeing mention of the K3's poor audio? Sounds to me like it is more the operator is unable to make the necessary menu selections. Or, more likely, the complainer never actually heard a K3.

Now, back to 75 meters and a little Kool-Aide.
