[Elecraft] K3 audio line out level with blue tooth hearing aid amp

[Robert G Strickland]

Happy New Year to all.

I just got new ReSound hearing aids w/ a blue tooth amp pickup. I 
connected the blue tooth transmitter to the front panel PHONES and got 
plenty of sound but very distorted at levels necessary for operating. I 
then connected it to the LINE OUT in the back of the K3 and switched 
that output level from fixed to PHONES. The audio level for signals is 
almost too low to hear at any level of AF/RF gain, but the beep level 
for radio control is very loud.

How do I get the signal output from the LINE OUT jack up to a useable 
level? Any thoughts as to why the audio from the front panel PHONES is 
so distorted? Is this a radio issue or something to do with the blue 
tooth transmitter and the hearing aids? Thanks for any and all comments.
