Or make them sound terrible for those lids who boost the lows all the
way down to 30 Hz and over drive the highs in an attempt to compensate
for the filtering built into the transceiver DSP or transmit IF.
In general any input below 200 Hz is a waste of transmit power and
contributes to distortion in the audio processing stages. Excess
high frequency clipping also generates significant splatter when the
heavily processed modulation is passed through a PA stage which is
itself in compression (non-linear).

K3, K3S, KX3, and KX2 all have a fine TX equalizer built-in. There is ZERO need
for anything outboard.
