[Elecraft] Such Service K3 RX audio on voice modes

[Doug Turnbull]

Where would anyone get such service and attention to detail?   The K3 is a
product whose design is ever being improved!   I truly hope the good people
at Elecrafter prosper for all their good works.   My fear is that as worthy
as government work is that if this gem of a company ever gets out of the
consumer sector then we will have lost one amazing experience.  Owning a K3
and following its development is an exciting trip.   We have serious
technical correspondence between great engineers and intelligent users. The
engineer is happy and able to make changes.  My K3, this forum and
Elecrafter bring additional happiness!
           Thank you Doug EI2CN

Band noise is filtered three times before it gets to the AF amp: at the 
crystal filter, the DSP I.F. filter, and the DSP A.F. filter. It is 
most definitely "pink" by the time you hear it.

However, it seems that we have some customers with such good hearing 
that they could benefit from additional rolloff at the output of the 
DAC driving the AF amp. Lyle and I are exploring ways to do this. We've 
added you to the short list to test anything we might come up with.
