Unfortunately, the issue with the 12 kHz leakage (DAC clock?) and beat 
notes (+/- CW sidetone around 12 kHz) make for some awful audio in CW.   
I guess most folks don't hear it, but given previous reports from 
others, it is an issue.  I can't comfortably use the K3 for CW unless 
using outboard low-pass audio filters to knock the high end garbage down 
to an in-audible level.
