[Elecraft] Transmit Equalizers and FT4/8

[donovanf at starpower.net]

Hi Pete, 


Are you sure that your minimizing SSB voice frequencies above 2000 Hz? 
I hope that's a typo, because its fundamentally incorrect. 


Its perfectly okay to use SSB mode with FT8 and other digital modes, 
but you MUST set TX equalization to flat and CMP to fully 
counterclockwise. The MIC level must be set so with the fifth ALC 
bar just flickering, this assures that ALC is off.

I normally run my K3's TX equalizer to minimize low frequencies and frequencies above 2000 Hz. Am I right to assume that I should set it back to flat when doing FT4/8?
