[Elecraft] K3

[Mel Farrer]

Hi Phil,

One of the things that makes getting the modulation up to snuff is to view the output on a modulation monitor.  I use an old Kenwood SM220 in the trap position which allows me to adjust mike gain, carrier drive, ALC, etc until it looks good into a dummy load.  I do this on all voice modes.  It helps alot and makes it easy to see under or over modulation.  A thought.

My K3 has wonderful audio on SSB.  Tried AM for the first time this morning
and had lots of carrier but only 30% modulated.  Before I start playing,
what do you recommend to do it right the first time.
