I was surprised that RF clipping or compression for ssb was not
mentioned as a "requirement" for the K3 (or K 0.5 or K4).
The German unit looks great (tiny). Decades ago, before I forgot "the
phone" I used a board produced by DATONG (UK). Back then (late 70's
early 80's??) it was "small" but wo

For those who think the SSB "punch" is a little weak, maybe this would
help.
In fact, maybe this would be a good Mini-Module Kit.

Hi Geoff, I would suggest if your making a mini-module let it be a
speech compression device, not a clipper. Compression increases average
power used and sounds louder. If set too high it sounds odd and can create
clipping that generates unwanted sidebands.

Hi Geoff, cut your weeds and we can both think hard on what "Speech
Compression" really is. I got to thinking and about all it can be is
clipping of the high voice peaks, and increasing audio drive. I will
look at the ARRL Hand Book and see what they have.

Hi,
I have modified my K2 with the internal SSM2165. With the SSBC-Menu I
can choose the compression 1:1 (1:1), 3:1 (2:1), 6:1 (3:1) and 9:1 (4:1)

The mod is very easy: You change RP5 to a 150k and connect Pin 2 and Pin
3 of RP5. Thats all!
You find the mode in 'QRP
And along the same lines, what about a better VOX?
The Smooth Voice Controller from April 1992 QST used a bucket brigade audio
delay system to prevent any audio from being chopped off by the VOX. A QSK
system for voice.
Probably lots of better technology exists now than 14 years ago when that

Thanks Bill for all the information and the fact that the K2 has a
chip from Analog Devices that should do the desired job. I have the pdf

A question. Does the K2 have a variable resistor at R! Compression

Hi
Yesterday a thunderstorm ran through here, and while I didn't think it
was anywhere too close, the SWR bridge diodes in the KPA100 thought otherwise.
A few hours after the storm, I fired the K2/100 up and it was receiving
fine, but my troubles started when I tried to tune up. I don't reca
