[Elecraft] K3 with the w2ihy audio gear

I have been using Julius 8 band box since he first came out with it and 
still have it driving K3.
The main reason is the noise gate is better than the gate in the K3, the 
gate in the K3 needs to have more
canceling on the back ground noise I can literally watch tv with the 
volume low four foot from the mic and talk on the radio with out the tv 
audio coming in over my voice, and its easier / faster to turn off the 
audio effects or change the gate as well.
It will surly killed the amplifier fan noise as well used to chase grids 
on 144 mHz the Command II fan was very noisy
the Julius box gate fixed that problem.

I use the ATR 30 which I bought for $22  a few years ago and it came 
with a 16 ft cable XLR to 1/4 in plug , I have a GOLDLINE PRO as well 
the only difference is the PRICE.
