K3S/K3/KX3 EQ settings ... three (3) different recommended settings??

[John Altman]

Interesting input ...

and, seems we have 3 different EQ settings from Jim Brown!

Question, were these the original setting suggestions from Jim or are these
the "final" settings after personal adjustments?

Thanks to the group...

Several experienced ops gave similar recommendations for TX EQ. These
settings are from Jim Brown (K9YC) and I used them without any change.



Freq. Band   50Hz 100Hz            200Hz            400Hz
800Hz
1600Hz         2400Hz             3200Hz

EQ       -16dB             -16dB             -16dB             -3dB
0
0          0          +3dB



The 3.2kHz boost is optional, use it if it works for you. I did not.





I got mine from Jim, K9YC, a retired audio professional designer and
consultant in large venues.? They are:



1 -14

2 -10

3 -6

4 -2

5 0

6 +4

7 +6

8 +10





Using this config file:



    SSB|-16|-16|-16| -6|  0|  3|  5|  6|Brown, Jim K9YC

    SSB|-16|-12| -6|  0|  0|  3|  5|  6|Subich Joe W4YV

    SSB|-16|-14| -4|  0|  2|  4|  8| 12|(typ) Heil, Bob K9EID

    SSB|-16|-16|-10| -6|  4|  6|  8| 12|(dx) Heil, Bob K9EID

The ones I listed are final tweaks from Jim's just posted settings for
my voice, mic [Heil iC electret in a ProSet], and room acoustic
characteristics, based on tests with several local-ish friends ... one
of whom may have been Jim, memory fails here.  Should have been more
concise.

I put the K3 on the DL, disconnected the P3, and tuned it to my TX QRG. 
The settings I posted cause my voice, mic, and room characteristics to
pretty much fill the SSB passband.
