There are three distinct audio channels in the K3, and they all have slightly different characteristics. LINE OUT This has its own digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and is transformer isolated. PHONES This shares a DAC with the speaker channel, but has its own amplifier and isolating resistors to help reduce the impact of plugging in two sets of headphones. SPEAKER This shares a DAC with the headphones, but has its own stereo amplifier. We are aware of the discussions regarding harmonic distortion and IMD. While it is easy to just say, "The radio meets specs!" (it does :-) we are looking at ways to improve the performance of the entire audio system. And you have lots of help, too!!! I'm sure sorting it all out is sometimes difficult, but.... 73, doug _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
