[Elecraft] K3: Firmware 2.10 NR audio gain

[KM5Q]

I just upgraded from 2.02 to 2.10 beta. Before, NR gain equalzation  
(between on and off) was such that when I turned on NR, I had to  
increase the AF GAIN to compensate for audio drop.

Now, the gain equalization has been shifted the other way. When I turn  
NR on, the gain goes UP. NR is working nicely, but I have to turn the  
gain DOWN unless the signal is weak.

I think they overcompensated with this new firmware. I would rather  
they set the equalization in between the previous version and this  
one. That way switching in NR will be a one-tap operation under all  
conditions.

It think the audio quality of NR is better now (less reverberation and  
distortion) but that is a different subject.
