K3 filters

Barry N1EU
Simon, I've listened to the clip on a couple of computers and
headphones, and I appreciate your efforts but I also have to wonder if
this is representative of the K3.  At times it sounds distorted (noise
modulated?, AGC?) and also, the cw tone often doesn't sound great to
my ears.  Additional recordings would be great - from you or any other
K3 owners out there with a soundcard.

73,
Barry N1EU


>It's a 16-bit mono recording taken via the line-out using a high-quality
soundcard (USInterface.com Navigator). The K3 operator isn't all that
skilled but he's got half a clue as to what's going on (on a good day at
least).

>> K3 owners: is this recording representative of what the K3 actually sounds

Hi,

I think this must be my recording system here, I agree that it is not
great - I will look at the line out options I have enabled. Through my Hi-Fi
speaker it sounds much better.

I have now tried a Delta-44 soundcard - and have concluded that there's some
processing taking place on the Line Out. I've looked at all options I can
find and have got nowhere so will take this up with K3 support.

The speaker audio is great, the audio from lineout is hollow!

I've been wondering how the K3 does on phone. Can someone post some
recordings of  the K3 receive audio on SSB and perhaps SWLing???  I also
wonder if  recordings done with PCs faithfully reproduce the audio at
the rig.
