Dear Group, I have checked out N1EU's site regarding tweeking the settings of the K3. I am very impressed with the way the received audio is now by injecting a bit of the pink noise in the background. Makes listening for long periods very pleasant. I love the way my voice sounds on the transmitted audio for rag chewing, very natural sounding. I have received several unsolicited coments about my audio.
What I would like to know is: does anyone have some basic settings to start with for transmitting during a contest? I tend to like a little sharper or tighter sound with more highs and less lows to break through a pile up. For example, higher pitched phonetics like "Canada" and "radio" tend to punch through a lot of QRM better than "Charlie" and "Romeo" even though those are the excepted international phonetics. I would tailor those settings for my voice, just need a starting point. The second question would be: Is there a way to save one set of equalizer settings for rag chewing and a second set for pile up busting or contesting so I would only need to push one or two buttons (quick change)? Not sure if the macros would do this, I haven't played with that yet. If not, this might be a good software addition for down the road. I tend to move up and down and change bands a lot. Sometimes I come across a pile up I would like to give a try, so a quick change between 2 or more equalizer settings might help. Hey, you never know what the guy on the other end hears.
