K3 NR and KIO3B INTERFACE

Elecraft mailing list
  Last year we upgraded one of the K3's with the installation of the KIO3B interface kit. Shortly after we noticed that the NR sounded different. Like an "echo", even on the least aggressive setting. The NR performance appeared to have significantly suffered. Coincidence with the KIO3B installation ? We put the K3 on the shelf and used the backup K3 w/o the upgraded IO board.  Two months ago we upgraded the backup K3 with the KIO3B interface. Guess what, the same issue,the NR reduction has suffered the same symptoms as the 1st K3 ! What is going on here ? Tnx,73,Peter,HS0ZKX

My K3S has sounded like that since I bought it.

K3 NR and KIO3B INTERFACE

Bob McGraw - K4TAX
Could it be the AFX function is on?   This adds a bit of delay between L
and R.     In using a pair of non-amplified external speakers connected
to the rear SPKRS jack, I don't notice any objectionable echo when NR is
engaged.   The setting which I use for SSB  is NRmF5--1.   This is mixed
audio being part original audio and part being DSP audio.
