[Elecraft] K3S TX Noise Gate

[Bill Johnson]

I have corrected what I meant to convey.

Richard, I agree with Don. What I was getting at was that perhaps the extreme high setting, which is well beyond your highest voice frequency, may have something to do with the lack of effectiveness for the transmit gate   I would add that the gain at 2400 is extraordinary as well.  10 dB of audio increase, if I recall correctly  from my technical training (Signal Corp '69-72),  is like doubling the perceived volume.  That is a lot.  Of course, this doesn't take your mic into consideration.  The noise gate goes to 10 dB I believe.

Richard,

Remove the boost on the high end.
You can reduce all bands if you want to maintain the same curve.
It is better not to boost, but cut instead.
