[Elecraft] OT: RF Clipper "works with Elecraft"

In SSB modes, the K3 performs clipping at the 15 kHz IF, then bandpass 
filters the result. It is further filtered by the 8.215 MHz IF quartz 
filter.

Thus, the SSB speech processor used in the K3 is IF envelope clipping. 
It is preceded by a 8-band equalizer, so the radio can be adjusted for 
from natural sounding, though "punchy" to just plain awful if you wish 
it to be :-)
