this because the same mic works great with my Flex
6500, and I'd imagine the KX3 could accommodate a range of mic levels
as great as the Flex can.
Any help appreciated.

If Ralf's hypothesis is correct, another approach (besides RX-shift)
might be to turn on the RX ISO menu item. Doing that helps
reduce the radiation of the local oscillator.

Hi Klaus,
I tried to provoke some AM breakthrough with my active antenna in

Abstract: When contemplating the prospect of operating portable with batteries,
it's useful to have a clear idea of power consumption choices over a range of
output levels. Data
Ron, this announcement led me to the radiomarine.org site, and from there to
the magnificent on-air recordings of the coastal stations and marine operations.
What a fantastic historical resource - not to mention a superb trove of
real-world (and often hand-keyed) CW that is great for CW practice,
2 things:
1. You can turn the K1 output power off completely (Pwr = 0) by tapping
BAND/DISPLAY when in the Out Menu. Tapping BAND/DISPLAY a second time
turns power back on.
2. Because of paddle design, the dit and dah sides interact on some
paddles when the paddle-to-contact spacing is set

Yes, it's the PA kicking in; here's a small study I did earlier this year:

Other than the bump at the PA transition, the power increase per output watt
seems pretty linear.
The interesting implications come when running from an
