I changed the subject line (more appropriate).

Thanks to Bill, W2BLC, the most significant setting was turning on 
ATT while listening to the 20m Elecraft Net this morning.  NS7P was 
running about S-6 and not easy to copy.  After ATT was applied he was 
arm-chair copy -wow!

My S-meter read about S-5 on noise before and about S-2 with 
ATT.  But was amazing to see how signals rose out of the noise with 
ATT applied.  I made the other setting adjustments with no apparent 
change to my ears.  I use an old ten-inch National Radio speaker from 
the 1950's with my K3 which sounds less harsh than the internal K3 speaker.

I have a different set of EQ settings which I did not alter.
