k3 - what are your settings?

Dave, G4AON

I use NR = 6 (firmware 1.41), but I think it depends on the noise you
are trying to reduce. It doesn't seem to change when adjusted until I
reach the higher numbers.
I've also played with the AGC settings in "tec mode", thinking it
sounded better with changes to slope (AGC SLP) and threshold (AGC THR)
but I've now gone back to the defaults.
Have you played with the audio effects (AFX)? On headphones it sounds
really nice.

SSB transmit audio reports are good, I'm using a Kenwood MC-43S
microphone with the front panel mic level at 41, compression at 15. Menu
mic gain set to FP.H

The response at the lower settings isn't instant.  Set, pause, listen,
set, pause listen...  At the higher values the attack time is much
quicker (and the algorithm in general much more aggressive).
