[Elecraft] Q: Recording outgoing messages on the K3 DVR

[Fred Jensen]

The K3 very conveniently includes switch actions in its CAT vocabulary, 
both TAP and HOLD [SWTnn and SWHnn].  I used N1MM+ to send them to 
activate the K3 voice recorder memories back when I still knew how to 
operate SSB.  I recorded my messages using the same radio and microphone 
that I used when speaking live, all the equalizations were the same, and 
a whole bunch of digital-ish boxes [computer, sound cards, mp3 files] 
and their problems disappeared. Folks advised that I sounded exactly the 
same live and from the messages.

73,
