[Elecraft] Echo and feedback un SSB

[Dave Hachadorian]

So you guys are talking about the KX3 monitor, right?

I can't hear any delay in the K3 monitor, and I am VERY sensitive 
to that.

It is actually better to hear yourself with a slight delay.

When you talk, you are not hearing yourself as others hear you 
due to something called 'bone conduction'. You can actually hear 
yourself through the mastoid bone. Have you ever listened to a 
recording of yourself and thought, "That's not how I sound!" 
That's because of bone conduction coloring your hearing of your 
own voice.

However, hearing yourself with a slight delay gives you a better 
idea of what you really sound like -- how others hear you. As 
long as the delay doesn't make you stutter -- what my wife, a 
speech pathologist, calls 'proprioceptive feedback'-- this delay 
is useful.

This is why I've always felt that the slight delay in the TX 
monitor is a good thing.
