John,
Are you sure you have the Heil plugged into the Mic and headset plugs?
If you set the K3 in the config menu to Headphones + speaker do you hear
audio as you would expect?
I was thinking you may have connected to Line In and Line out perhaps?

That sounds very wrong to me, John. I have a K3

earphones (including an old Heil ProSet). AF is at
around 10 and never past 12 on either rig.
No problems here -- and I have a known hearing

John,
You may have another issue but I thought I'd post what I'm doing.
First I did have a low RX audio issue. When I touched some buttons RX audio

Second, if I use a heavy dose of NR, the volume sucks similar
Hi John,
I purchased the Heil Proset (sold by Elecraft) when I bought my K3 several

Hi John,
Check the CONFIG AF GAIN setting. It suspect yours may be set to LO. If
so, set it to HI.
