I want to have a second op listening to the sub rx on a separate pair of phones

fed from the right and the other from the left side of the front panel phone
output and this seems to works well. With the channels
I keep reading about the Clear Speech units and wonder if they are a
viable addition of the K3? Any have user comments from experience or use
of these? I am looking for the silver bullet that cleans up lightning
static.
Always on the prowl to improve my armchair copy station.
Thanks,

That sounds like the PTT in the SignaLink box has broken.
HRD has an option to send PTT via a K3 command - try setting that on and
see if things work correctly.

If so, did you buy a device, what kind, where, how much?

Interesting coincidence is that i just finished hooking up my K3 to the
Signalink USB and HRD. Like 11 minutes ago.
The cable i use has 3 plugs: line in, line out and PTT.
I didn't connect the PTT at all because i'm using that jack on the K3 for my
foot switch.
So HRD keys the radio via CAT.
Bob,
Thanks for the quick reply. I actually already have a pair of Bluetooth
earbuds (Plantronics GO2) that I use with iPhone and iPad (listening and

The two screws in the middle of the right side panel hold the low voltage
regulators to the side, for heat sinking, IIRC. Take the top off and you

My station consists of two K-3's, each with a dedicated legal limit amplifier

That is a logic question seeking an answer. I don't know of a simple
solution, but it is a matter of selecting a match of the outputs of 2
band data decoders. If any two are the same, assert TX INH to both K3s.
That function could be implemented with a number of NAND gates or XOR

You should have no problems with paralleling 2 headphones on the audio

significant difference in the response (SPL) of the two headphones, that
may present a volume problem, in which case, some secondary
