I got mine from Jim, K9YC, a retired audio professional designer and consultant in large venues.  They are:

1 -14
2 -10
3 -6
4 -2
5 0
6 +4
7 +6
8 +10

I don't frequent phone much but when I do [like in an NAQP SSB or SS], I usually get one or two "great audio" comments.  While most of that is undoubtedly due to superior DNA, I think the K3 TX EQ has something to do with it. [:-)  Close-talking some mics tends to boost the lows too, sometimes significantly.

Jim points out that there is no value to power in the low frequencies, they carry almost no information.  Watching the P3 waterfall with a narrow span demonstrates dramatically how many SSB signals have all the power in the lows, crammed up against the suppressed carrier, and next to nothing out where it would be beneficial.

I just finished writing a python program to make it easier to control the K3 internal EQs.  The impetus is to easily adjust in response to on-air reports, or to adjust when using MON to listen to myself in headphones.

One of the things I've done is to include a file of presets drawing from recommendations of knowledgeable hams.  An example is shown at:

Are there are other recommendations from anyone?  I'm especially looking for recommendations coming from those with substantial audio background.  The idea is for us audio neophytes to steal, er, learn from the learned!

I'm restoring a Heathkit line of DX-60B xmtr, HR-10G vfo, and HR10 rcvr.  The DX-60B is cw or am, so I've become interested in AM settings of late.  :-)

Tnx es 73!
