[Elecraft] K3 Audio

[Jim]

Ken, I am with you. I like the K-3 receive audio on phone and am not a fan
of the down to "0" audio. For many years I have referred to this as, "Low
order distortion". Also, I don't like that dull thud sound some of the guys
exhibit with the excessive wide audio and external equipment. 

 

Too much base can be bad. I remember many years ago the horrible basey audio
from a Kenwood MC-50 and the toilet roll fix. 

 

Back to hissy receive audio it's pretty noticeable in the Yaesu FT-1000 MP.
The fix is to turn the DSP off and set the carrier point in the menu.

 

Still, I don't hear any appreciable hiss in the K3.

As Joe sez, PLEASE, no more bass without the means

to avoid it.  I'm interested in a communications transceiver, 

not a "hi-fi" receiver for my home audio system. (:-))
