Well I wouldn't say useless. I'm sure no recording is *exactly* like the original but I have often played back another station's transmission (eg to help them set up their audio to let them know how they sound over a long distance), and other people listening (eg in the same net) usually say the KDVR3 is pretty close. I believe it's certainly close enough to be of use. Another way of handling it of course is to play the KDVR recording into a PC and email it but that's slower and less immediate.
Like you Gary I find the KDVR3 very good. All it needs to make it perfect in my view is the monitor tweak recently (and regularly) mentioned on the list and yes I too would support a way of erasing the AF REC loop. You can already erase M1-4 memories individually. 73 to all, Geoff G3UCK ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gary Gregory" <garyvk...@gmail.com> Sent: Sunday, June 06, 2010 3:32 PM Subject: Re: [Elecraft] KDVR Hmmm, Playing back another stations audio seems to be a common request, however, the recording when it is played back is not the "true" audio being transmitted by the originating station so therefore it becomes kiinda useless. ______________________________________________________________ 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
