Dear Fred Regarding your hearing aids you may be interested in a product that can send LF from K3 directly to your hearing aids. The Danish company Phonak are selling a device under the name of TVLink which plugs into the line out, Scart, headphone or external speaker connector and from it's

Hi Kjeld, Yes, my aids are Phonak, I've tried the TVLink [belonged to someone else] and it does work well. I think it's BlueTooth, my two aids talk to each other and change programs at the same time. Sadly, they do not include a boom mic which I need. I also need to shut out surrounding

I use similar settings - except I follow the advice of Wayne and Lyle against using any boost in the EQ. That leaves the bottom two and top two bands at -16 with the middle four flat. On occasion, I have also set the 1600 Hz band to -16 dB but I set Pitch at 490 Hz which places 1000 - 12000 Hz

It's personal taste, your headphones/speakers, and state of your hearing. My hearing is pretty bad and my hearing aids don't work under headphones [I never use speakers]. CW: Don't boost anything over 0 dB, RX EQ goes away at very narrow DSP BW settings ... don't remember exactly where. You

As a general rule with use of equalization, most EQ designs seem to have less phase shift effect when they are used in the attenuate mode as opposed to the boost mode. I've observed that excessive EQ in many applications will make an audio signal

Hi Mark, Barry's recommendation is what I did, however, there is one other thing to consider. This topic was discussed a few years ago on the reflector and Lyle advised that it was not recommended to peak up a desired frequency on CW. Only use negative settings for undesired frequencies. The

Mark, Only you can determine what is correct. You need to use a CW tone that feels best to you. After that, knock off all the frequencies above and below your desired CW tone. What you are going to do is essentially filter out more noise and distractions that your receive filters allow

Note that Rx EQ does not add additional stages of filtering selectivity. The DSP builds a single filter which includes the equalization parameters. In general, you should start by setting the RxEQ on voice signals until things are equalized for your speaker or headphones and your ears, and
