I run COMP=20 on my K3 with a Heil HM10-5 desk mic (older model I bought in 1998 with wide freq element). Get great audio reports on SSB on either HF or 2m-SSB. I have only modified Tx equalization for three lowest audio freq bands as mainly running conversational operating on a couple HF Nets and most operating is VHF+.
I checked my COMP on the KX3 and it is only set to 8 with the MH3 hand-mic. On FM I had reports of overdeviation so lowered mic gain to 15. SSB mic level appears to work at that level without complaint. 73, Ed - KL7UW, WD2XSH/45 (500-KHz) ______________________________________________________________ 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
