Strange, cranking up the compression doesn't seem to be affecting my 5 watt CW
signal much :-)
In keeping with the discussion, I use a small amount of compression and no TX
equalization on SSB and have had good success and audio compliments at 10 watts.

Well..he DID use the term "equivalent".
I get it, but you know what it will sound like if everyone starts
crankin on that compression knob :)
I agree with everything else you just said BTW

IN FACT, power level has little to do with HOW something sounds...
volume? yes, quality? Not nearly as much.

The saying is an oversimplification. The KX3 includes two important
tools to increase talk power on SSB -- TX equalization, which can be set
to emphasize speech intelligibility and minimize power wasted below
OK I'll give you that. A 592 signal WILL in fact, sound different from a 599
signal.

Admittedly, the Rx plays a part, but the ham on the other end of your signal
can't tell the difference between a KX3 and a 6AQ5.

I think what you're actually saying is that you're amazed at what can be
accomplished at QRP power levels.
Remember,
Scott,
I don't usually brag either, but this is not about me, rather my KX3.
On Saturday morning last, on 14.221, I worked a pileup while activating
Porthcawl Lighthouse for the first time during International Lighthouse and
Lightship Weekend. I was scribbling down QSOs at a rate of one a
10 matches
