[Elecraft] K3 Mufflied audio - new issue

[Keith Heimbold]

Hi Don,

I am hearing a muffled echo and some strange over compression with my normal settings in monitor. 

A local friend and I were changing the settings to lower compression and mic gain and it was better but it still remained.

I changed to the other rig using the same antenna and headset (used on other rig) and my report was beautiful sounding audio with no muffling or issues with echo. 

I am working through a complete reset now to factory. Thought it might help.

I will report back if this helps the situation.

Thanks,

Keith

I decided for some reason to listen to my audio on my K3 serial 1391 and it sounded really muffled.  I switched to my other K3 and everything sounded perfect with same two headsets switching back and forth.  There seems to be something weird going on with 1391.  I am not sure if I should do a reset or if there is some other procedure I should run through.  Using the headsets on 1526 eliminates the possibility of a headset issue.
