Ken, I am with you. I like the K-3 receive audio on phone and am not a fan of the down to "0" audio. For many years I have referred to this as, "Low order distortion". Also, I don't like that dull thud sound some of the guys exhibit with the excessive wide audio and external equipment.
Too much base can be bad. I remember many years ago the horrible basey audio from a Kenwood MC-50 and the toilet roll fix. Back to hissy receive audio it's pretty noticeable in the Yaesu FT-1000 MP. The fix is to turn the DSP off and set the carrier point in the menu. Still, I don't hear any appreciable hiss in the K3. 73 de KE4WY Jim -----Original Message----- From: elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net [mailto:elecraft-boun...@mailman.qth.net] On Behalf Of Ken Kopp Sent: Monday, April 06, 2009 8:10 PM To: elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] K3 Audio As Joe sez, PLEASE, no more bass without the means to avoid it. I'm interested in a communications transceiver, not a "hi-fi" receiver for my home audio system. (:-)) 73!
