[Elecraft] Voice is clipped K3s

[Nr4c]

If you are using the MH4 Elecraft mic plugged into the front panel. Set mic to “FpL -bias”. Set EQ to flat. Set Cmp to zero and adjust micgain for 4-5 bars ALC.  Now adjust Cmp to provide about 10dB and get on the air and get assistance from someone who knows your voice. 

If you’re having intermittent issues check ALL connections. If you have Monitor on keep it low or it will get into the mic and give you grief. 

Better, use another radio receiver to listen to yourself transmitting into a dummy load. Even on of the many SDR Dongle type will work great.
