Ed Same here. It's an issue that was raised many moons ago and I believe that Elecraft made some software changes to address this. In my humble opinion, it's nowhere near right yet.

Cole Sent: 25 February 2012 21:25 To: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net Subject: [Elecraft] K3 - FM deviation I've had complaints my FM signal is low in audio (which implies low deviation). Mic gain control is inoperative in FM mode (turned up to 60 with no change). I checked CONFIG: FM DEV and it is set to 5.0 KHz. It can be raised to 6.0 but I haven't changed it as that seems not the proper way to raise transmit audio. I'm guessing this setting is fixed at the factory. I have no RF level issues: signal is full quieting on FM. Even yelling into the mic with my lips touching the mic makes no difference (according to the listener). Is there an epot to control this or hard pot inside the radio? 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 ====================================== BP40IQ 500 KHz - 10-GHz www.kl7uw.com EME: 50-1.1kw?, 144-1.4kw, 432-QRT, 1296-?, 3400-?
