[Elecraft] Re: K3 noise reduction vs. Clear Speech speaker
Here is a comment I got off-line from a fellow who comments about CW (and I agree, though my comments applied to SSB): quote -- I have been using MCU 2.23, but an older DSP 1.81 to get a decent sound on CW. The newer DSP takes too long to sync on the CW signal and it sounds like very soft keying when NR is on and about F=2--3 or so. ... It brings the signal up out of the static, but destroys the leading edge of the CW signal. At least that's what I'm seeing here. --end of quote Some guys like it the way it is, but there's a lot of agreement here that it's a work in progress, and has even been in digress lately. I know the developers are listening and I'm it's going to be improved.

Re: [Elecraft] Re: K3 noise reduction vs. Clear Speech speaker
I think I've noticed that... Its like the filter opens up a bit and the static comes up but then when the tone is present the filter locks in on it after a bit and the static comes down. I have a feeling that this phenomenon probably helps it to not obliterate weak signal CW sigs but it can be a tad bit annoying with some of the mediocre to loud sigs. I agree that its a work in progress and if there was ever a guy who will figure out a really slick way to do it its Lyle. Lyle seems to be growing and learning what works better along with the k3. It takes time to get things just right. This coupled with the fact that there is NO way to make everyone happy it can get even tougher. But knowing Lyle he'll strike a good balance and things will improve over time. I'm interested to see/hear what they've been cooking up as of late... ~Brett On Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 2:41 PM, KM5Q [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Here is a comment I got off-line from a fellow who comments about CW (and I agree, though my comments applied to SSB): quote -- I have been using MCU 2.23, but an older DSP 1.81 to get a decent sound on CW.

Re: [Elecraft] Re: K3 noise reduction vs. Clear Speech speaker
I take this back.. After doing a bit of playing with the AGC decay rate I was able to get things back in line with what I wanted for the band conditions at the moment. I gotta admit the AGC in the K3 is WAY more than I've ever had available before. On Sun, Aug 24, 2008 at 6:04 PM, Brett Howard [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I think I've noticed that...
