Wayne, I have yet to use voice (SSB) on my KX3 or KX2 having been so far CW only. Are there any other audio settings you have set other than those you mention below. Do you recommend speech compression set to max or was that just a test of audio quality check. I will experiment but it would be nice to know what starting points and boundaries make sense.
I still have all my iPhone headsets from my original iPhone 1 through my current 6s. Actually, still have all those iPhones too. I may test each one to see how they work — now, I need to find them all though. Just ordered the Y-adapter cable from Amazon. 73, phil, K7PEH > On Jul 2, 2018, at 5:09 PM, Wayne Burdick <[email protected]> wrote: > > Several KX2/KX3 users have asked what I use as an adapter to go from an > iPhone headset to the rig’s headphone and mic jacks. > > Here it is: > > > https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00PYZ2BT4/ref=oh_aui_bia_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 > > This unit works beautifully with both my old and new iPhone headsets.
