[Elecraft] K3 - background hiss

[Adrian]

Bob,

Guy is giving you a lot of good advice, and he has some serious operating
skills behind him, so he knows what he is saying.

Maybe you can think of it this way -- "You can't copy (with your ears)
signals that are buried in the atmospheric noise, so why make that noise
louder".

Yes Guy's information to deal with noise is exactly how I run here, however
the white noise issue is best fixed with the RX equaliser settings I gave
earlier.
If you did manage to read my post Bob and try those settings, then you will
be pleasantly surprised and satisfied with the new mellow sound of your K3.
Please note that this is reversible in case you think vk advice is worth
little.
