[Elecraft] TX5K Audio

I believe they are using K3's.  If that is so the audio quality is not 
what would be expected and is a poor advertisement.  "thin", "weedy", 
"all highs", "gravelly" and so on.  An S3 SSB signal with some QRN on 
15M last night was essentially incomprehensible.

My own observations and comments from others.  I use a Yamaha headset 
with my K3, have tweaked the equalizer, mic gain and compression 
settings and never receive a bad comment, quite the contrary.

Given the factory is just up the road, maybe they could do with some help.

I'm not monitoring the list at present so apologies if this has already 
been mentioned.
