Jerry,
Much of what you see on this reflector is the result of personal choices
of the various operators. Each of us has our favorite settings that
have been derived from our own personal desires and operating styles.
However, the K3 (and K3S) can be used "out of the box" with its default
settings. So operate it for a while with those defaults.
Look through the options presented in the manual to get an idea about
how the K3S can be configured and you should see just how versatile it
can be in configuring it for your personal preferences.
Yes, you can ask others for their settings, but since those preferences
vary from operator to operator, you are just as good using the defaults
initially.
Over some operating time along with a review of the menu settings, you
should be able to customize the K3S to your desires. Use it as-is for a
while, and listen to the settings that others use, but more importantly,
listen to "why" they use those settings and decide whether those reasons
fit you operating preferences. We all like to think our particular
choices are "the best", but they may not apply to all. If those choices
were to apply to all, then they would be present in the default
settings. Use the defaults and then vary from them as you see fit after
some operating experience with the K3S.

The xyl always tells me that . . . I have read through the manual several times. I was
hoping, like my camera that has a myriad of menus and selections, that someone has
posted suggested setups for different modes - ie ssb or cw. At this point looking at
the selections available it would take weeks of operation & trial & error to
set up the radio for optimum performance - at least that's what it looks like for me .
