[Elecraft] Data Mode

[Don Wilhelm]

Jack,

The advantage to using DATA A mode is that the compression is set to 
zero and the Equalization is turned off.  If you are also using SSB and 
have compression set for SSB and/or are using equalization for normal 
(speech) SSB mode, then it will be an advantage for you to use DATA A 
instead of SSB.  If you never use a microphone with the K3, then you 
will find no difference.
