[Elecraft] K3 DSP AGC Question

[Mike K2MK]

Hi Lyle:

I was very disappointed to read your post. I purchased a Proset headset
directly from Elecraft when I bought my K3. According to Heil this headset
has an impedance of 200 ohms. Is that why I have to plug my headphones into
the rear speaker jack to get sufficient audio output from them? Why would
you folks sell a headset that does not complement the K3? I am really
disappointed.
