Fred, I am a devote CW op and have never enjoyed SSB until the K3 came along. K3 audio is remarkably clean, distortion free and a joy to listen to. Clearly a great deal of the "trash" I heard on SSB I should have attributed to my receiver rather than the "other guy". Unlike many other implementations, the K3 DSP noise reduction is very effective without introducing annoying artifacts. At its most aggressive it will produce a hollow, "bottom of the well", sound but with no loss of intelligibility. The VOX is the smoothest I've ever used and is all you could ever want. Being able to tailor both the receive and transmit audio allows you to compensate for your voice and hearing characteristics quite effectively.
