Your suggestion of my listening to me transmitting into a dummy on another radio was a good idea. However, I pulled my backup K3 out of its box & replaced the K3s with it. It's Serial #202 but it is updated to the final K3 specs and has most of the K3s upgrades so I just switched one for the other. I matched the config from the K3s to the K3 so they are set up the same.
Zero issues with the K3, all reports say the audio is excellent with no hint of RFI. Seems like I have a problem with the K3s. Unfortunate in that it was just returned from repair this last August but things happen. Thank you all for the replies, great ideas and I set the TX EQ to the settings Joe, W4TV, provided for this mic. The audio reports have been excellent so that helped greatly. I'll get a RMA and send it out tomorrow. Thanks & 73, Gary KA1J > If you are using the MH4 Elecraft mic plugged into the front panel. > Set mic to "FpL -bias". Set EQ to flat.
