I think I better take a mea culpa on this one. One reply in a private email asked if I was using and amp and whether I was driving it too hard. Well, some mornings this week I have depending on static levels and I operated the KS QSO Party this past weekend and ran 100W. I normally run the amp (ALS-600) with the power setting at 70W.
This is probably just a, "D'oh!" moment. Yes, the K3 was still set for 100W. Incidentally, My COMP runs about 2-3 bars on voice peaks and the ALC meter is in the 5-7 bars range on peaks as well. It's a PEBCAK3 issue. ;-) -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
