[Elecraft] K3 Headphone audio.

[Carl Clawson]

I hate to belabor this rather minor issue but since there have been a couple
"I don't get it" responses, here's why you haven't noticed it:

Speakers vary widely in their drive requirements. If you have speakers that
match your phones, lucky you. Mine don't. I use a set of bookshelf size hi
fi speakers that take many dB more drive than my phones.

It's not so bad having to turn the volume down but the monitor, since it
(rightly, IMO) does not adjust with the volume, also needs to go down. This
is a minor pain when you don't realize until you've already started
transmitting that you forgot to change it.

Another issue is that Speakers + Phones mode won't work well. If you're
comfortable with the phones, your guests can barely hear the speakers.

I very seldom use speakers any more.
