Running compression with digimodes is generally a bad idea, as it can
distort the signal (depending on the modulation scheme). If you are going
to use the USB mode on the KX3 for ditigal modes, you should set the CMP
setting to '0', and adjust the PC output level/mic gain to get four steady
bars on the "ALC meter", then set the power control to the desired level.
You should also ensure that the MIC BIAS and MIC BTN menu items are set to
"OFF".

73, Matt VK2ACL.
