Thanks to everyone who offered their suggestions! I am not sure what happened, but the problem cleared up simply by accessing my uRouter software for the MKII and toggling from Front mic to Rear, then back to Front. Once I did this I immediately noticed the CMP and ALC bars back to their desired peaks (5-7 for ALC, 10 for CMP).
I worked with a local audiophile over the air and we settled on the following settings: Mic Sel: rPL.bias Mic: 30 Cmp: 20 VOX Delay: 1.2 (for rag chews; use something shorter for contesting) VOX Gn: 50 AntiVox: 25 The tone of my voice was still a bit nasal to him, so we adjusted the TX EQ as follows: 50 Hz @ +0 dB 100 Hz @ +0 dB 200 Hz @ +8 dB 400 Hz @ +2 dB 800 Hz @ -16 dB 1600 Hz @ -2 dB 2400 Hz @ +0 dB 3200 Hz @ +0 dB He suggested I consider adding a Behringer Shark DSP110 to soften up my tone and give it a warmer, fuller sound. They can be had cheap on eBay so I may pick one up to experiment with. 73, Jeff W6UX ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
