K3 audio respons

on4iq
I am sure someone can inform me, i reinstalled the K3 setup and did a check on the output , audio output.
To obtain a flat reponse i have to put the equaliser to +16 on the freq above 1khz, and -16 on the freq below 800hz.
This seems very odd.
Putting the equaliser on 0dB for the full range give a rapid rolloff above 1KHz.

I want to get a flat response for jt65 use.
Any ideas?

You are probably set for the wrong transmission mode, or have narrowed
the IF bandwidth settings. Use Digital A for all computer-generated and
decoded modes except RTTY. Set the IF bandwidth at the widest setting.

Assuming you are using DATA A mode, the filter defaults to 400 Hz.
Widen the filter width using the Width and Shift knobs to a wide
bandpass (2.8kHz) and you should find you have a flat audio output with
RX EQ set with all bands at zero.

If you are using SSB mode, there can be other factors involved which are
not helpful - use DATA A.
