[Elecraft] K3 : SSB modulation

[Lance Collister, W7GJ]

Hello Tim,

I use the Heil Pro-set K2 with the IC mic into a W2IHY Equalizer and Noise Gate. I 
set the W2IHY for bias and the K3 for no bias.  I use this because (at least 
initially) the K3 noise gate caused audio distortion and I was getting bad audio 
reports.   With the current setup I get great audio reports.  I run the Compression 
around 25, and the Mic gain so I get the usual 6 bars on the ALC meter.

GL and VY 73, Lance
