K3 #98 is working well. Has anyone found the right settings of Mic Gain (Hi/Lo?), Comp, VOX Gain, and VOX delay for the Heil HC4 element?

Trying to get on the air for the 10M contest...

Depends on your voice and preferences. Listen to the MON in your headphones while you mess with MIC and CMP using PTT, then adjust VOX for your voice and preferences, then use the speaker and apply enough Antivox to prevent tripping on received audio with the microphone a little closer to the radio than you would normally have it.

I suspect you'll end up with MIC HI and GAIN around 20 to 30 for good ALC action when speaking normally but close to the microphone. I usually have CMP set to 10. But for a contest you probably want more distortion - I mean "punch" -- so set it higher ;-)

Enjoy!
