John Yes, I get this artefact. It's been evident ever since I got my K3. You will notice that it is made worse by excessive mic gain or compression.
I hope it is an artifact in the monitor circuit, and not on the transmitted signal !

Hi Just noticed this when playing around with the K3's monitor. With the Gate off EQ flat MH2 hand MIC TX test mode Band 7mhz While whistling there is a odd artifact. If I whistle I get a sound that sounds like a oscillator pulling in a receiver. I dont get any odd sounds with normal voice testing .With a continuous whistle I get this artifact that is a mirror of the whistle, however it seems to shift frequency or pull the louder you whistle.It might be a IMD product? I have never noticed this before in the K3's monitor. I will also check the clubs K3's and report back. Anyone else get this?
