This is because you have the MONITOR volume turned up. The monitor allows you to hear your own signal, which is useful with headphones. But you can't use it with the speaker, for the reason that you have discovered. In SSB mode, push and turn the MON control all the way down. This is not specific to the K3; any rig that has a monitor function will have the same issue. -- 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
