K3 latest firmware

Barry Simpson
I have just loaded the latest firmware.

 

The NR is certainly different and appears to be a big improvement although
at aggressive settings the audio output is very attenuated.

 

There is another effect which doesn't seem to have been published. That is
the maximum output that can be set by the power control is now 110 watts
instead of 120 watts.

 

Has anyone else noticed this or is it confined to my K3 ?

Barry,

The power dropped to 110W with the previous public beta I think, in the
interest of spectral purity as I recall.

Barry, the power level was dropped to 110 some time ago.

Also, F3-4 and F4-4 are for instances of high signal ratio and noise; i.e.
strong S9+ signals with high noise levels.  It is still recommended to Use
F1 and F2 settings for the best results.

Actually it was published in the Firmware release notes...
