Ah, the brand wars re-emerge again... While every brand must be tailored to the operators voice and use (rag chew vs DXing), it has been my observation that the K3 is certainly a cleaner transmitter on phone than most Yaesu transmitters which are generally wider using both side bands (easily seen on a P3) if not precisely set up. Some contesters prefer that, as it ‘opens up’ bandwidth, giving them a clear space to call.
It’s either a ‘feature’ of how the Yaesu is set up or several poor operators or the brand. I don’t suggest the brand at all anymore, when asked. The Anan and Flex are among the cleanest, sheer cliff walls of audio.
