Thanks, Mark. I did have a local listen after I made some adjustments, but I didn't make adjustments in real time as he was listening. I think that'll have to be the next step. I did try to adjust EQ settings, as detailed in another message. But, I'll give your settings a try, also -- they are a little more aggressive than the one's tried. I do find it interesting that the MH3 mic got better on-the-air reviews without any EQ adjustment than, so far, I've gotten from the Heil Proset, with adjustments. I hope your more aggressive settings will turn the tide of battle! ;-) 73 de Carl, N8VZ

G'day Carl,

If you get aggressive with TX EQ you can make the Heil iC element sound
pretty good. If you can get someone who knows your voice to listen while you
make adjustments you should be able to come up with settings that suit your
voice.

I started out with the settings outlined on the Heil All things Elecraft
page - it's at
http://www.heilsound.com/amateur/dsp-settings/125-all-things-elecraft and
with the help of another operator finally came up with the following :-

-16, -16, -06, +00, +06, +12, +12 and +09 for TXEQ.
Compression is at 25 and mic gain is high enough to have the fifth, and
occasionally the sixth, ALC bar flickering.

With those settings I often get unsolicited reports of very good audio.

Cheers,

Subject: [Elecraft] Heil Proset KX3 Element?

I have a Heil Proset with the ic element.  I get fairly lack luster audio
reports.
What would be the best replacement element to use?  I assume that it's a
fairly simple operation to replace the ic element with another one.  It
looks
like there are just two phillips screws holding on the cover of the
element
box at the end of the boom.

Any and all ideas, experiences, etc., appreciated.

73,
Carl
