[Elecraft] [K3] K3 RX audio on voice modes <oh no here we go again>

Geoff,

Pink tends to sound most flat to our ears.
That's why it's widely used to calibrate audio equipment.

Red/brown may sound nice as well, but are relatively "dark"

Funny thing about "white" is that it keeps that agressive nature in a
restricted bandwidth, because the high flank will grab the most attention of
our ears. I think that may be a reason to cause ear fatigue in the long run.

In analog DIY radio's I've allways tried to maintain a "pinkish" character
with a gentle low slope and a steep high.
