Jim, like you, I have not experienced the harshness of the K3, but maybe it is 
because my hearing rolls off at 2500 to 2700 Hz very drastically which makes me 
wonder if those who have the difficulty have more a more normal hearing range 
and hi-fi speakers or headsets, thus could benefit with a low pass filter on 
the audio.

Consider a stripped down K3 for the 2nd radio. You don't need an antenna 
tuner, buy it without the 2nd RX, minimal filters.

Gee, I haven't experienced that, and I've used mine for lots of long 
contests.
