Merry Christmas everybody,
I've just updated my firmware to 2.67.
I now have no compressor available on AM and the audio sounds very thin
and low - very similar to that on FM.
The modulation appears to decrease the carrier power. This second
problem has been an issue for some months.
The FM has always sounded dreadful. Is anyone else using their K3 in
anger on either of these modes? If so are you noticing the same things?
Altering the TX eq does not solve the problem.
By comparison my IC706mk2 in AM mode gives lots of upward modulation
with compression, which is required under noisy conditions. The same
radio on FM narrow gives very good audio as well.
Having done a super job with SSB and CW, I'm hoping we can get a really
top quality AM and FM transmit as well.
Thanks in anticipation
