Yes. In general, it is good a
Still, the adjustment is a bit tricky.
A higher threshhold also has loss of softer speech as a side effect.
When room-noise and speech approach the same level the gate has a rough
time, a common situation in contests/fielddays with people and fan-cooled
equipment packed closely together :-)

In general, I suggest using "cuts" rather than "boosts" to shape the
pass

There are two main approaches to helping mitigate shack noise from Tx
audio: Noise Gate and Downward Expansion.
A Noise Gate, such as is used in the K3, acts much l

Thanks for the suggestions about mic presence Jim. Yes, the mic on my headset
is
set so it is directly in front of my lips - as close as it can be without
touching. The problem I have here is that the amplifiers are directly behind
me,
so the mic is also aiming that direction when I am talki

Hi all!
Anyone using a W2IHY EQ Plus with the K3?
If so what are your experiences and what microphone are you using

Hello Lance. In addition to excellent built-in EQ, the K3 TX audio chain has a
built-in noise gate that I find to be excellent at reducing or eliminating
background noise on SSB. You might want to give it a go. '73 es gud dxing --

Have you tried turning down the mic gain and working it close?
Talking louder? Problems like this can be easily solv
Hello Goran,
I use the W2IHY Dual Band Noise Gate with my K3 and am very happy with it. If
you
only want to adjust the audio spectrum you can always use the built-in TX EQ in
the K3. However, I have never bothered to adjust the equalizer inside the K3.
My
primary goal was to eliminate the
ng up possible RFI and
giving you excessive audio and maybe even distorsion.
Just one heatlhy advice for you.now do as you wish.
