Hi Joe. Yes, I am also awaiting this firmware update. I have not yet got my K3, but my hopes are that it will be ready soon. Right now I am also using the IC-756pro3, microphone are the TSM MT-57 dynamic, and I use the W2IHY equalizer into the rear ACC connector. I have also ordered a better microphone, the AV Leader STM-11 : http://www.avleader.com.tw/product_Studio%20Microphones.htm This one has a very flat frequency response and needs an equalizer to sound good. This one also needs +48V phantom power, I have the small LEEM PHW-22 phantom power supply. This one is cheap, and it has selectable +48V or +12V.
This is what amateur radio is all about for some of us, not just getting a message thrue but making it sound as good as possible. Best regards LA4AMA Roar Joe Word wrote: > > Any update on when the ESSB function will be turned on in the > firmware?
