[Elecraft] Bass in audio is good

[Craig]

If I could make my K3 sound like its using a Heil HC4
cartridge I would be happy.  The Heil HC4 audio sound
is ESSB for me!  

Maybe at sometime in the future  transmitting through
the 2.1khz filter on SSB will be made possible. 

A further refinement of carrier point adjustment
combined with an  adjustable bandpass filter for the
TX audio might be another option.

It always strikes me how good  commercial SSB 
operators on the marine and aeronautical HF bands 
sound.  Their radios  have a precise frequency roll
off thats defined in  their standards. This
standardization  produces  good outcomes. Regardless
of what brand of Aircraft headset you use, you always
end up sounding the same on any aircraft HF radio.  I
think  its an ideal that we hams should strive for,
this plus clear communications quality audio.
