[Elecraft] Delay in monitor audio - it aint there!

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

The conclusion, only found at the very bottom of the article:

"Conclusion:

RF clipping, as implemented in the K3, is quite effective at
increasing "talk power" without causing major increases in transmitted
intermodulation. The resulting audio quality at high levels of
clipping may not be suitable for extended rag chew conversations, but
will provide useful improvements in contests or other situations where
maximum dynamic range of the recovered audio is not the primary
consideration."

Although 31 ms of delay was reported, that wasn't what the article was
written about.

73, Guy.
