[Elecraft] K3 TXEQ

[Ralph K1ZZI]

This was explained to me recently by an audio engineer.  We don't want to
waste energy transmitting sounds below about 300Hz.  It's ALL wasted energy
and it conveys no intelligibility.  There's a lot of "trash" below 300Hz,
room noise, fan noise and breath pops etc. The recommendation is to set the
first two TX EQ octave bands (50Hz and 100Hz) for maximum cut @ -16dB and
set all the other bands flat @ 0dB.  It works FB for me.  The reports 
are good.

I am using a Heil Gold Line microphone with a HC4 & a HC5 cartridge.
Does anybody have TX EQ setting that they have used with these mic
cartridges. I know that EQ needs to be tailored for one's actual voice.
