Thanks, David. Wish you were next door and we could compare OTA, which is, admittedly probably the best way. But I will try KK7P’s suggestion to DVR a clip and then play it back (repeated below). I have no doubt that the KX3 produces superior audio, and I’m experimenting with that as I get to know the rig. I have learned also (by just using this list) that there are abundant opinions and preferences about audio quality and parameters (moderator just began laughing loudly). For me, my monitor using a Heil 5.1 Gold Elite in its broader mode (it has two two modes) sounded less crisp than OTA S9+ copy. So I’m experimenting with that mich and with the Elecraft MH3. Thanks for comparing notes. 73’s.
David Ahrendts, KC0XT, LA KK7P, Lyle: "Note that the KX3 has a great tool for adjusting Tx EQ and CMP. Record your voice using the DVR, then play it back using MON. Adjust Tx EQ and CMP and play back the sample and you will be able to hear what your signal will sound like to the other station. Doing this "live" with a microphone is not nearly as effective due to bone conduction of your voice to your ears." > On Nov 19, 2014, at 2:52 PM, David DeGeorge <d...@degeorge.org> wrote: > > I am a new KX3 user also and have noticed that the monitor seems to > have some sort of effect applied much like the audio effects (which I have > turned off). > At first I thought that it might be RF in my headset but it persisted with > the RF output > turned to 0 and the rig terminated in a dummy load.
